Cannonsville, New York

It was founded in the late 18th century and survived until 1964, when it was destroyed to create the Cannonsville Reservoir.

The reservoir is part of the Delaware System and provides water to New York City located in the present-day town of Tompkins.

Cannonsville was named after Benjamin Cannon, Sr., alternately credited with building the town's first house and being its first Postmaster.
