Mycenae as Hartsville, 1860

Historically the hamlet was sometimes known as Hartsville; it is however not to be confused with the Hartsville in Steuben County, New York.

The area is the site of some small farms, as well as the Aspinall Tree Nursery. Some local homes are large, while others are more modest. The Greek Revival style Mycenae Schoolhouse, built 1850, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.

Local mail is handled at ZIP code 13066 in the nearby Village of Fayetteville.
