NY 401 was assigned in the 1930s and removed in the early 1950s. The section between US 9 to the village of Stottsville was designated as New York State Route 955 (NY 955), a reference route, while the rest was designated as part of County Route 20 (CR 20). On April 1, 1980, the section designated as NY 955 was turned over to the county and became a continuation of CR 20.
