History

The village was first incorporated in 1854 and re-incorporated in 1873.

Company E, 34th New York Volunteer Infantry Regiment, was principally recruited here during the American Civil War.

The Addison Village Hall, Church of the Redeemer, and William Wombough House are individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Also listed are the national historic districts: Main Street Historic District and Maple Street Historic District.

In May 2024, a clerk pled guilty to stealing from the village over the course of two decades. She was sentenced to nine years in prison, ordered to pay $1.1 million in restitution, and stripped of her state pension. The state law allowing judges to reduce or revoke pensions of officials was passed in 2011, and this was its first use in sentencing.
