| Lyme, including the territory of Cape Vincent, was erected from Brownville in 1818. Cape Vincent was cut off from the town of Lyme on April 10, 1849. Its name was derived from its principal village, which, in turn had been named from Vincent, son of Le Ray De Chaumont. The old land-office of Mr. Le Ray is still standing on Broadway, nearly opposite the residence of Mrs. Peugnet. |
