History

the text in this section is copied from an article in Wikipedia

The area was settled around 1638, and received its patent (to Henry Beekman, Thomas Garton, and Charles Brodhead) in 1703. The community of Marbletown once served briefly as the state capital, after the city of Kingston was burned by the British during the American Revolutionary War. Part of Marbletown was used in 1823 to form the Town of Olive and another part was used in 1844 to form the Town of Rosendale. The town of Marbletown was formed in 1788.

The Bevier Stone House, Rest Plaus Historic District, Cornelius Wynkoop Stone House and Mohonk Mountain House are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
