Liverpool is a lakeside village in Onondaga County, New York, United States. As of the 2020 census, the population was 2,242. The name was adopted from the city of Liverpool in the United Kingdom. The village is on Onondaga Lake, in the western part of the town of Salina and is northwest of Syracuse, of which it is a suburb.




History



The area was originally inhabited by the Iroquois, starting in the 16th century. In the mid-17th century, Canadian French Jesuits visited the area, setting up missions. These were not permanent, however. An example of these missions is Sainte Marie among the Iroquois, on Onondaga Lake just outside the village. Once the (Erie Canal) and (Oswego Canal) were built, the area was settled by Irish canal workers, Yankee settlers, and, later, German immigrants. The early recorded name for the village was "Little Ireland".
The Lucius Gleason House and Liverpool Cemetery are listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Early industries included several salt works in the 19th century and a sawmill. Liverpool played an important role in the salt industry on the shores of Onondaga Lake. A history of the area's salt mining can be found at the Salt Museum.




= Village incorporated

=
The New York State surveyor general laid out the streets in the village, changed its name from "Little Ireland" to "Liverpool", and had it incorporated on April 20, 1830. It was renamed after the city of Liverpool in England, most likely because it also produced salt and village leaders wanted to use the name recognition of another famous salt-producing region; coincidentally, 15 years later, the Great Famine caused so many people to sail from Ireland to England for a new life in Liverpool that the city gained the nickname "Little Ireland" and its demographic makeup remains the most overwhelmingly Irish of any community in the United Kingdom.




= Industry

=
The hotel business was booming. George Ingersoll built the Globe Hotel. Liverpool was also a cigar manufacturing center during the 1890s. In 1918, the Oswego Canal was closed. Onondaga Lake Park, established in 1931, is now the location of much of the old canal bed.
