However, Ashland suffered a [[recession]] in the early 1850s when its tanning industry collapsed after the community exhausted its supply of hemlock bark. Around the same time, the cotton and wool [[Textile manufacturing | mills]] lost business due to being located inland, resulting in expensive transportation rates.{{sfn|Dodd|1903|p=41}}

Ashland is a town in Greene County, New York, United States. The population was 682 in the 2020 US census,[2][better source needed] down from 784 in the 2010 census.[2][3] Ashland is in the northwestern part of the county.

History

[edit]

Early settlements were abandoned during the American Revolution, but the town was re-settled in 1788.[citation needed] The town was created from parts of the towns of Windham and Prattsville in 1848.[4]

When the town was still part of Windham, it was called Scienceville[5] due to there being "some families of more than ordinary education"[6] in the area. When Scienceville became a separate community in 1848, it was renamed Ashland after the estate of Henry Clay.[7]

The presence of hemlock forests led to a tanning industry.[4] Hemlock bark was an important raw material used for leather tanning,[8] due to it being a good source of tannic acid.[9]

However, Ashland suffered a recession in the early 1850s when its tanning industry collapsed after the community exhausted its supply of hemlock bark. Around the same time, the cotton and wool mills lost business due to being located inland, resulting in expensive transportation rates.[7]

In 1890, the population was 560.[citation needed]

A local YMCA was opened on March 29, 1895, but closed due to a lack of support in 1901.[10]

Geography

[edit]

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of 26.0 square miles (67 km2), all land.

The town is at the northern border of the Catskill Park. The northern town line is the border of Schoharie County.
