A Look Back: Lodi's History

Long ago, the Seneca tribe lived in this part of New York. They were a Native American group. The Sullivan Expedition later caused them to leave the area.

After that, the land became part of the Central New York Military Tract. This land was used to pay soldiers who fought in the American Revolution.

The Lodi Methodist Church is an important building in the village. It was designed by a famous architect named Warren H. Hayes. In 1982, this church was added to the National Register of Historic Places. This means it is a historically important site.
