Your help is greatly appreciated!

How to Determine Service Line Material:

All you need is a screwdriver and a magnet.

  • Conducting a SCRATCH TEST
  1.   Find the water service line in your home, this will be a pipe entering your home and attached before the water meter.

History of Carlton

Carlton’s first settlement was made in 1803 by two brothers, James and William Wadsworth, who soon moved further west in New York State. They were subsequently followed by the Brown, Dunham, Lovewell and Root families who stayed.

Carlton was formed from the Towns of Gaines and Ridgeway on April 13, 1822 and known under the name of Oak Orchard until 1825 when the name was changed to Carlton. It is thought the name Carlton was chosen honoring Sir Guy Carleton (1724 – 1808), who served as Governor of Quebec from 1786 – 1796. Carleton was also a shipbuilding district near Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

Town of Carlton – 200 Years!

The Town of Carlton would like to thank everyone in the community that came together for the  Celebration to commemorate 200 years.
