History

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

Windsor is the site of the historic Seneca village of Onaquaga, which was one of 40 destroyed by the Continental Army in October 1778 during Sullivan's Expedition.

In 1830, the new village was founded as a commercial settlement, and it soon outstripped its rival to the north, Ouaquaga. The village was incorporated in 1896.

The Windsor Village Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The Jedediah Hotchkiss House was listed in 1982.[1]
