This article appears in Volume V01, Page 511 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: AJA-ALL
ALBION , a
village
  and the county-seat of Orleans county, New
York
 , U.S.A., about 30 M. W.N.W. of Rochester. Pop. (1890) 4586; (1900) 4477, (984 being foreign-born and 43 negroes) ; (1905, state census) 5174 ; (1910) 5016. The
village
  is served by the New
York
  Central & Hudson River railway, by the
Buffalo
 , Lockport & Rochester electric railway, and by the Erie Canal. In Albion are the Western House of
Refuge
  for Women (a state institution established in 1890), a public park, the
Swan
  Library, and the county buildings, including the court house, the jail and the surrogate's office; and about 2 M. to the S.E. is the beautiful
Mount
  Albion Cemetery. Albion is the centre of the Medina sandstone industry, and lies in the midst of a good farming region, of which it is the principal shipping point, especially for apples, cabbages and beans. The village manufactures agricultural implements, vinegar, evaporated fruit, and canned fruit and vegetables, and has two large cold-storage houses. Albion was settled in 1812, was incorporated in 1823 and became the county-seat in 1825.
