History

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

The town was formed in 1788 from the "Palatine District" in the newly formed Montgomery County. In 1797, part of the town was used to form the Town of Salisbury (now in Herkimer County). The formation of other towns that eventually were in adjacent counties further reduced Palatine, but the formation of Town of St. Johnsville created another town in Montgomery County.

The Palatine Church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.
