Do you know of Worthville ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Worthville. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Worthville.<1>

Our sources for Worthville (see Mentions and References below) indicate that it was a community with a post office by the same name. Unfortunately our sources aren't clear about the location of Worthville other than they indicate that Worthville would be found somewhere in Jefferson County, New York.
