About New Berlin, NY

The first European-American settlers arrived around 1790, after the American Revolutionary War. This followed the Iroquois League nations being forced to cede most of their territory to the United States following the defeat of their ally Great Britain. The Mohawk and other Iroquois nations moved to Ontario, Canada, where they were granted some land by the British Crown in compensation. Some small reservations were set up for them in New York state. The Town of New Berlin was founded by a partition of the Town of Norwich in 1807; it was named after Berlin, Connecticut, from which many new land-hungry Yankee settlers had come.
