Check the old legislative manuals. These volumes list town and village
populations for the preceding twenty or thirty years. New towns can be
identified by "Holes" in the rows of population figures. The manuals also
list names and specific dates when towns and villages were created.

I'm not sure if the manuals of the last couple of decades contain such
information.

> I need to know which towns in New York State either have been created or
have gone out of existence since 1860.  I do not need the former towns which
are now part of New York City.  I know of the following former towns that no
longer exist:
>
> Highmarket
> Wilmurt
> Greenbush
> Saratoga Springs
> Rome
> Buffalo
>
> I also know that these towns have been created since 1860:
>
> Green Island
> Mt. Kisco
> Harrison
> East Rochester
> Babylon

> I need to know any that I have omitted.
