Description

Wikipedia

Muller Hill is a state forest and historic site near Georgetown in Madison County, New York, United States. In the early 19th century, a wealthy Frenchman who went by the name of "Louis Anathe Muller" lived on the site for several years. Muller constructed a house and developed a hamlet nearby, known as Bronder's Hollow. After he left the region in 1814, the house and hamlet fell into disrepair; Muller's home burnt down in the early 20th century and Bronder's Hollow all but disappeared. Muller's true identity was a popular subject of discussion in upstate New York for decades following his disappearance. In the 1930s, the land was purchased by New York State, and it has since been a 3,090 acre (1,250 ha) state forest. It was the site of a juvenile prison, Camp Georgetown, from 1960 to 2011.
