McGraw is a village in Cortland County, New York, United States. The population was 1,053 at the 2010 census.[1] The village is named after Samuel McGraw and is in the eastern part of the town of Cortlandville, east of the city of Cortland.

History

The community was first settled around 1806 by Samuel McGraw. In the 19th century the community styled itself as "Corset City".

The village was home to New-York Central College, McGrawville, an institution of higher learning founded by Free Baptists in 1849. The college was notable because about half of its students were African American, and it also accepted female students. The college also employed three black professors. A smallpox epidemic, along with social and political opposition and financial problems, brought about the college's closure in 1859 or 1860.

In 1852 the village had "some five or six stores, one tavern, and three churches".[2]

McGraw was incorporated as a village in 1869.

The Main Street Historic District and Presbyterian Church of McGraw are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[3]
