Dickinson is a town in Franklin County, New York, United States. The population was 823 at the 2010 census.[2] The town was named after an individual in New Jersey by an early landowner from that state.

Dickinson is on the western border of Franklin County, southwest of Malone and east of Potsdam.

History

The name originally proposed for the area was "Annastown", after the daughter of a landowner, but another influential landowner prevailed with the current name.

The town of Dickinson was formed from the town of Malone in 1809. In 1812, part of Dickinson was used to form the town of Bangor. The creation of the town of Moira in 1828 cost Dickinson more territory. When the town of Waverly was established in 1880, additional territory was lost.

In 1843, conversions to the Mormon religion and migration westward occurred in the town due to relatives of a Mormon apostle living there.

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of {{convert|114.8|km2|order=flip}}, of which {{convert|114.5|km2|order=flip}} is land and {{convert|0.2|km2|order=flip|1}}, or 0.20%, is water.[2]

The west town line is the border of St. Lawrence County. The town is located along the northern edge of the Adirondacks.

New York State Route 11B is an east-west highway.
