History

The area was originally called Chepontuc (Iroquois; "difficult place to get around"), also referred to as the "Great Carrying Place," but was renamed The Corners by settlers.^[2] In 1766 it was renamed Wing's Falls for Abraham Wing, leader of the group of Quakers that established the permanent settlement. Wing's claim to the name of the village was transferred to Colonel Johannes Glen of Schenectady in 1788, either on collection of a debt, as a result of a game of cards, or in exchange for hosting a party for mutual friends, depending on which local legend is believed.^[3][4][2] Colonel Glen was delighted to change the name of the town to Glen's Falls, sometimes spelled "Glenn's", which was later abbreviated to Glens Falls. 1766 was a common year starting on Wednesday (see link for calendar). ... 1788 was a leap year starting on Tuesday (see link for calendar). ...

As a halfway point between Forts Edward and William Henry, the falls was the site of several battles during the French-Indian War and the Revolutionary War. The hamlet was mostly destroyed by fire twice during the latter conflict, forcing the Quakers to abandon the settlement until the war ended in 1783. Fire also ravaged the town in 1864, 1884, and 1902.^[2]
