Fayetteville has been the center of trade and business since the first
settlers arrived in 1792. "A thriving and beautiful village" was the way the
New York Tribune described it in 1876 at the height of the trade generated by
the Erie Canal.
The name "Fayetteville" was chosen to honor the hero of the American
Revolution, Marquis de LayFayette. The post office, established in 1818, and
the village's incorporation in 1844, made the name official.
Today, the mailing address of "Fayetteville" (13066) extends far beyond the
actual village boundaries into the town of Manlius and neighboring DeWitt.
