Kingston, New York |
| Kingston is a city in Ulster County, New York. It is 91 miles (146 km) north of New York City and 50 miles (80 km) south of Albany along the Hudson River. The City of Kingston was first called Esopus after a local Indian tribe, and later renamed Wiltwyck by the Dutch. It was one of the three large settlements in New Netherland. After the Dutch colony was taken over by the British in 1664, the settlement was renamed Kingston. |
| In 1777 Kingston became the first capital of New York. Shortly after the Battle of Saratoga, the city was burned by British troops moving up the Hudson River from New York City, disembarking at the mouth of the Rondout Creek on the formation the Dutch had named Ponck Hockie. The area was a major granary for the colonies at the time, so the British burned large amounts of wheat and most of the buildings. |
