About Salamanca, NY

What is now known as the city of Salamanca was originally two separate communities, one on Little Valley Creek and the other on Great Valley Creek; the westernmost one of the two was called "Hemlock", a name derived from the numerous hemlock trees throughout the surrounding mountains. Hemlock was later renamed "West Salamanca" and (although it was marked on road signs as late as the 1990s) was eventually incorporated into the single city of Salamanca. The city was incorporated in 1913. At one time the city was a thriving railroad hub, with the Erie Railroad (Later Conrail), Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh (Later Baltimore & Ohio) all having facilities there. Generations of Salamanca residents worked for the railroads, and much of the housing was originally built for them by the railroads.
