The population was 1,843 at the 2010 census.[2] The town is named after Stephen Van Rensselaer.[4] The "official" hamlets are Cooksburg, Medusa, Potter Hollow, Preston Hollow, and Rensselaerville.{{Citation needed|date=June 2009}} HistoryRensselaerville was once part of the Manor of Rensselaerswyck, as such the people who farmed the land were technically leaseholders of the patroon under a feudal system, first as part of the Dutch colony of New Netherland, then under the English colony, and then U.S. state, of New York. Some of the earliest settlement in Rensselaerville was along the five Native American paths that crossed the town in the early 18th century. The southwestern corner along one of these, that connected the Hudson River to the Schoharie Valley was the first section of the town to be settled, this would be around 1712. This path was also the one used during wars between the Stockbridge Indians and those at Schoharie.[4] In 1787, the patroon had a survey and census taken in order to enroll squatters and collect the quitrent required of settlers on his lands.[4] Rensselaerville was created from part of the town of Watervliet in 1790. In 1795, the northern part of the town was lost to create the new town of Berne. Additional territory was lost from the eastern part of the town upon the formation of the town of Westerlo in 1815. In 1795, after Shays' Rebellion Daniel Shays moved from Massachusetts to Preston Hollow, a hamlet in Rensselaerville. His son became one of the leading citizens of the town.[4] The Conkling–Boardman–Eldridge Farm and Rensselaerville Historic District are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[5] GeographyAccording to the United States Census Bureau, the town has a total area of {{convert|61.9|sqmi|km2}}, of which {{convert|61.5|sqmi|km2}} is land and {{convert|0.4|sqmi|km2}} (0.63%) is water. The south town line is the border of Greene County, and the west town line is the border of Schoharie County. The town is located in the northern Catskill Mountains. Catskill Creek and its tributaries, Lake Creek, Fox Creek, Tenmile Creek, Greene Kill and Eightmile Creek, flow through the town.
