Within a short distance of the village are situated the estates of Mr. Thomas Rnnisey, and John R. Hay ward, Esq. the latter gentleman represented (in 1846) this connty in Assembly. ^

Most of the fnrms in this neighborhood now cover the old Lawrence property, which at one period embraced nearly five hnndred acres. A portion of it was called Virginia from its beantifnl appearance. The earliest proprietor (of this estate) was Isaac Lawrence, Esq. who originally emigrated from Long Island to Eastchester, cir. I(i89.
