Hi there: We have extensive articles about the town of Fairfield on the Herkimer/Montgomery Counties GenWeb page, thanks to our section editor, Jane Dieffenbacher, Fairfield Town Historian. Jane also provided us with early 19th century student lists of the medical students as well as detailed information about the medical college at Fairfield. Further info can be gotten from Jane, whose email address is directly on the page.
