Bronxville History
When New York City?????s population spilled north of Manhattan during the 19th century, one of the country hamlets in its path was Bronxville, which offered a few scattered structures near the Bronx River, a stop on the New York and Harlem Railroad.
In the ensuing decades, the Village evolved from a tiny settlement of farm, orchard, estate and factory land to become one of the nation's premiere metropolitan suburbs.
FIRST WHITE SETTLERS
Although local Indian tribes deeded the region
to British colonists in 1666, the earliest settlers
are believed to be the Underhill and Morgan
families who arrived here in the first half of the
18th century.
Both families farmed and tended orchards, but the
Underhills also established the first local factory ????? a
saw and grist mill where today?????s Pondfield Road
West crosses the Bronx River. They built a wooden
bridge over the River inspiring the settlement?????s first
name, Underhill?????s Crossing. Their mill was the first
of several factories sprung up along the River.
Manufacturing was part of the Bronxville scene for
almost two centuries, until 1922 when the last
factory, the Kraft leather tannery, vanished in a
spectacular blaze.
The Morgans are remembered by the oldest
surviving house in the Village, the Abijah
Morgan House, built sometime before 1811
when a company of militia mustered there
during the War of 1812.
EARLY 19TH CENTURY FAMILIES
It was almost a century after the arrival of the
Underhills and Morgans before the next modest
influx of settlers would make their mark.
Alexander Masterton, a prosperous stonecutter
from Scotland, was lured by quarries of fine
white marble that were discovered in nearby
Tuckahoe in 1822. Masterton eventually
supplied stone for Greek Revival buildings from
Boston to New Orleans, including Washington
D.C. capitol buildings destroyed during the War
of 1812.
In 1835 Masterton built a neo-classical wooden
home called Ridgecroft for his wife and six
children. The house is now listed on the National
Register of Historic Places. It remained in the
family until the 1959 death of Masterton?????s
granddaughter Amie Dusenberry, who like many
of her Masterton and Dusenberry ancestors, was a
vital force in Village life.
The year after the Mastertons moved to White
Plains Road, the other side of the Village became
home to another large family, the Rev. and Mrs.
Robert Bolton and their 13 children. An
American, Bolton had taken an English bride and
spent his married life in Liverpool. Looking for a
new start, he spent $14,000 for 150 acres of
land and an Underhill house, developing Brook
Farm, a model Homestead and orchards.
Although the Boltons liquidated their holdings
after only a decade and a half, they left a
lasting legacy. In 1849 they donated two acres
on the crest of a hill to a fledgling religious
group that build a Dutch Reformed church. This
pre-Civil War congregation recently celebrated
its 150th anniversary in their much larger 1926
stone building.
