Penfield is a town in Monroe County, New York. The lands that now constitute the Town of Penfield were part of the hunting grounds of the Seneca Nation, a member of the Iroquois Confederacy. There is no evidence of Seneca settlements within Penfield, but the town does include the place now called "Indian Landing." From this landing on the shores of Irondequoit Bay, trails and water routes went throughout the region and beyond. This included a water route with only two portages leading from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. Following the American Revolution the lands that became Penfield were included in the Phelps and Gorham Purchase. The Town of Penfield was established in 1810 and the first Town Meeting was held on 2 April 1811.
