Boonville is a village in Oneida County, New York, United States. The population was 2,138 at the 2000 census. The village is named after Gerrit Boon, an agent of the Holland Land Company.

History

The first settlement, instigated by Gerrit Boon, was made around 1795. The village was incorporated in 1855. The original name of the community, provided by Boon, was "Kortenaer" (after Egbert Bartholomeusz Kortenaer, a Dutch admiral).

The former Black River Canal was constructed to connect the Erie Canal to the Black River. The completion of a railroad line to the village in 1855, marked the decline for the recently completed canal.
