According to Hon. Hiram Gray, Matthew Carpenter, then a member or the legislature and a man of influence, having seen this beautiful valley, resolved that Newtown should be the principal city, and that it should bear the name of a lady friend for whom he entertained a high opinion, and accordingly, in 18[0]8, the name was changed to Elmira. </p> </blockquote> <p>Elmira served as a transportation hub for New York's Southern Tier in the 1800s, connecting commercial centers in <a href="/wiki/Rochester,_New_York" title="Rochester, New York">Rochester</a> and <a href="/wiki/Buffalo,_New_York" title="Buffalo, New York">Buffalo</a> with <a href="/wiki/Albany,_New_York" title="Albany, New York">Albany</a> and <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a>, via the canal system and railroads.
