Springport is a town in Cayuga County, New York, United States. The population was 2,367 at the 2010 census.[2] The name is derived from the local springs and lakeports. Springport is on the west border of the county and is southwest of Auburn.

History

The town lies in the former territory of the Cayuga tribe. A mission to the tribe by the Jesuits was established in 1688. The Sullivan Expedition destroyed the Cayuga villages in 1779.

The town was excluded from the Central New York Military Tract and set apart as a reservation for the Cayugas who returned after the American Revolution. In 1789, they gave up this land to New York, thus opening it to settlers. The first settlers were occasionally asked to leave due to disputes with the tribal members, but eventually the population of outsiders grew. By 1799, most of the Cayuga, including a few Tuscarora, had sold out and departed the area.

The town of Springport was formed in 1823 from parts of the towns of Scipio and Aurelius. The presence of mineral springs and gypsum proved important in the early economy of Springport.

The village of Union Springs was incorporated in 1848.

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, Springport has a total area of {{convert|69.5|km2|disp=flip}}, of which {{convert|55.4|km2|disp=flip}} is land and {{convert|14.1|km2|disp=flip}}, or 20.24%, is water.[2]

Cayuga Lake defines the west town line, the border of Seneca County. Great Gully Creek flows into the lake south of Farleys, forming the south town line.

One of the few Finger Lakes islands, Frontenac Island, is located near Union Springs.
