When the Erie Canal opened, the farm, through which the canal passed at the Canawaugus Road, was sold to become the first village lots. As a port on the canal, the area was called Spencer's Basin and later changed to Spencerport. On April 22, 1867, the New York State Legislature incorporated Spencerport as a Village and William Slayton was elected as its first mayor. The Spencerport Methodist Church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.[6] Sites of interest
