Village of Clifton Springs
In 1849, the development of the area was slow until Dr. Henry Foster came looking for a place to begin his water cure. The field of medicine was just beginning and it was thought that the waters together with a strong religious revival could restore many to active and useful lives. Clifton Springs was well known throughout the eastern part of the US and hundreds of people came to enjoy the benefits of the water and the rest and regain of their health.
