The Town of Onondaga was incorporated in 1798. Unlike
most towns in the county, the Town of Onondaga formed no part of
the great Military Tract, but constituted the major portion of the
original Onondaga Indian Reservation. The treaty of July 28, 1795, gave
the state exclusive control of the Salt Springs Reservation and
also ceded much of the territory comprising the town.
