The Town of Camillus, established in 1799, is located
on the Southwest side of Onondaga Lake and the West side of Onondaga
County. It was named for Marcus Firius Camillus, who had a deep
interest in the Roman Classics. A suburban Town is only minutes

arenas, universities and colleges. The Town of Camillus is divided
into the Hamlets of Amboy, Belle Isle, Fairmount, Newport, Oswego
Bitter, parts of Warners, Westerlea, and a very small corner of
Memphis, and the Village of Camillus. For many years, Camillus was
the banner town of Central New York for home produce and grain markets
