President’s Message:
As our year draws to a close, it is only natural to think back over the activities that
have filled the LHS calendar in 2008-09. As I remember the cemetery restoration
program, the speakeasy murder mystery gala, the antiques appraisal day, the
women‘s history program, and the spectacular house tour, I think of the wonderful
board members and volunteers who made all these activities possible. In addition
to all the events they produced, there was also a great deal of behind-the-scenes
work, such as the research involved in planning for the restoration of Engine One
as well as century home club houses, the investigation into display space, and the
regular volume of questions that come into the Archives and are handled cheerfully by archivist Lynne Crowley.
What an honor it is to work with such an inspiring, fun, talented—and most of
all—energetic!—group of individuals. Based on the accomplishments of 2008-09,
I think we can look forward to an equally exciting and interesting 2009-10.
The magic ingredient, however, is new volunteers. If you‘ve thought about helping
out for a couple of hours or joining a year-round committee, please get in touch!
We would love to have even more people involved. We welcome new ideas; they
strengthen the Society.
And please visit our website: http://www.larchmonthistory.org/ for more information or to browse through an amazing collection of local photographs.
Enjoy the summer, and we‘ll see you in September!

The Larchmont Historical Society was
founded in 1980 and chartered in 1981
as a not-for-profit educational corporation by the New York State Board of
Regents to discover, preserve and disseminate information concerning the
natural, social, and civic history of
Larchmont, and to promote the preservation of local historical sites and structures. The Society maintains an archives in the Mamaroneck Town Center, 740 W. Boston Post Rd.,
Mamaroneck; publishes a newsletter;
offers programs; conducts tours for
school children and adults; and offers
outreach lectures to other community
groups. The newsletter is published to
provide news of the Society and occasional articles of related interest. Opinions expressed are those of their authors; publication should not be construed as endorsement by the Society.

From the Archives….
We‘ve added a new resource to our archive! Recently, interns at
LHS have scanned the Larchmont pages from directories located
at the New Rochelle Library covering most of the years from
1901 to 1926.
These directories provide us with information about who was
living here in Larchmont, though, of course, we can‘t say definitively that everyone living in Larchmont at a given time
would be in the directory. Also, we can see generally where
they lived; addresses would appear as ―Grove av‖ or ―Dean pl‖,
maybe ―Chatsworth av c Franklin av‖ indicating the corner. In
1916 a few houses had street numbers and then in 1919 most of
the addresses included them. In addition, there is information
about the person‘s occupation or status.
As we can see in the picture of a page taken from the 1903 directory, there are many occupations represented, from gardener,
tailor and cashier to manager (mgr), banker and even sailor,
which captures my fancy as I picture him standing at Umbrella
Point in Manor Park, face turned towards the sea (well, the
Sound, with Long Island visible – on a clear day, that is) waiting
for his ship to come in… but, I digress.
Mr. William Brauer is identified with ―steamship line (N.Y.)‖.
I‘m assuming he was the owner of the line, rather than toiling in
the bowels of a steamship, shoving coal into the voracious furnaces. And Messrs. Barrett and Beck are listed with ―paper‖ and
―wall paper‖ respectively, making me wonder if there was a connection somehow…
Ellen G. Bentz was ―wid Peter‖ forever casting her in my mind
draped in widow‘s weeds. And speaking of the color black, we
see that Richard Bradley and Mary Brooks are identified as
―(col) steward‖ and ―(col) domestic)‖. Hmmm. Well, that‘s
history. It looks like that practice stopped by the 1919 directory.
Incidentally, there are no directories for 1917 and 1918, I speculate because of WWI.
One final note on the directories for now: we can see how the
population of Larchmont expanded by the increase in the number of pages of the directories. Population really began to grow
after 1913 in which year about 760 names were listed. In 1915
there were 920 names, in 1922 there were 1722 names and in the
last book we have, 1926, there were 2,814 names listed. So, if
my trusty and trusted intern, Rebecca Zell can be relied upon for
her math skills, between 1913 and 1926, the population of
Larchmont increased by 27%.
Keep your eyes on our website, www.larchmonthistory.org. We
look forward to putting these documents in JPEG format there
soon.

Century Homes Club:
A Work In Progress
It has been a tremendously exciting and rewarding year for the
Century Homes Club! We set a goal for the year of creating an
infrastructure to facilitate more complete and ultimately streamlined research, and we have moved a long way towards our
goals. And along the way we have had the good fortune to unearth fabulous information on several houses that have been
awarded plaques and joined the Century Homes Club. Our inductees for the 2008-09 season to date are One Fountain Square
- The Davis Cottage and 20 Oak Avenue, The Gilder Cottage.
And we are in the final stages of half a dozen or so additional
homes. We look forward to returning to research in earnest in
the fall and hope to have a plethora of new applications into
which our researchers to delve with renewed vigor.
98 Larchmont Avenue( pictured above) is proving to be another
fascinating research quest that is close to joining the CHC ranks.
Based upon historic maps, we know that there was no house on
this spot, which is on the west side of Larchmont Avenue, one
house north of Elm, in 1901. However the residence was present by 1904. During this time frame, the property was owned
by Frederick W. Flint, son of Thompson J.S. Flint, founder of
the Larchmont Manor Company. Over the years the Flint heirs
owned, built, rented and sold numerous houses in our town.
Helena Flint (elder sister of Fred) even rented out her ‗mansion‘
as it was deemed by the press upon completion, Cherry Tree
cottage, from time to time! Cherry Tree, which was completed
in around March, 1895, being described as ‗one of the prettiest
places in Larchmont,‘ was rented out the very next summer. In
April 1896, Miss Helena Flint ‗has rented her residence on
Larchmont Avenue to Hugh Baxter of Fifth Avenue, NY. Nothing in the Village commands so high a rental, the per annum
being $3,000.‘
Fred Flint was born in 1852, the youngest of 7 children. His
first marriage to Jessie Lamson in 1879, ended with her death in
December, 1887, presumably in childbirth with their fourth
child, William Hasty, who was born Dec 10, 1887. Fred
remarried Elizabeth DeVisser, known as Lizzie S., and
they had two children, Harold Lusk and Elizabeth James.
We are quite fortunate to have a wonderful collection of
Flint family correspondence, some of which illuminates
family relationships and interaction. From these letters we
learn that there was little love lost between the second Mrs.
Fred Flint and the remainder of the family. We also learn,
sadly, the final years of Fred‘s life were characterized by
self-induced decline through excessive consumption.
Upon his death on March 19, 1908, Lizzie was left a lump
sum of $50,000 in cash, and the remainder of his estate,
largely real estate holdings, were split between his six children. Upon the settlement of the estate in 1909, Lizzie
purchased the property now known as 98 Larchmont Ave
from the children, for roughly $23,000 ($13,000 cash and
$10,000 mortgage), and we believe used it as her primary
residence until here death in 1916. The house was left to
her son Harold, who sold it promptly upon settlement of
her estate.
The Fred Flints owned a number of residences in Larchmont, but we believe they resided in the ‗family place‘ on
Beach Avenue, as his obituary references it as his residence
at time of decease. And we know that the house was
rented to C.C. Gould at the time of Fred‘s death in 1908,
based upon estate documents, and at the time was referenced as ‗Gould Cottage.‗ We were very close to terming
this property, ‗Gould Cottage,‘ however further perusal of
historic newspapers revealed the identity of an earlier tenant. In March, 1907, the cottage T.J.S. Flint ‗leased the
Flint cottage on Larchmont Avenue, now occupied by
David Rait, to C.C. Gould of Manhattan.‘
Over time we may or may not uncover more names and
personalities associated with this fascinating story. But
given how much we have unearthed, this is likely a case
that we will decide to close this properties plaque research
with incomplete information. Either way, once again in
our quest to unearth the story of this prominent home in
Larchmont‘s history, it has provided us with many more
chapter‘s in the ongoing growth of our living Larchmont
narrative.

A Call For Volunteers
Come Help Catalog the June Allen Costume Collection
Background: The JFACC, donated to the society in 1996, consists of approximately 100 items of women‘s clothing worn
between 1860 and 1939 by four generations of the same family (White-Freeman-Allen), who lived in the same house in
Larchmont Manor from 1891 to 1996. In 1996, the society
hired a consultant who, with the assistance of two volunteers
from the society, accessioned the items, stored them according
to basic archival principles, and produced a study catalog of
the collection and made recommendations for future work.
About Kenneth Loyal Smith...
Textile conservator Kenneth
Loyal Smith recently retired as
curator of the Old Merchant‘s
House Museum in lower Manhattan. He was previously a
costume curator at the Museum
of the City of New York and at
the Brooklyn Museum of Art.
From 1988 to 1994, Ken was
one of five conservators commissioned by the Pitti Palace in
Rome to conserve and reproduce de Medici burial clothing.
He stands in this photo beside
the reproduction silk burial
gown of Eleanora de Medici.
The reproduction silk was
woven on 16th-century looms,
and the English Needlework
Society spent 10 years reproducing the gold lace.
In 2007, the LHS board approved an expenditure of up to
$1,500 for phase two of this project, to address the oldest
items in the collection (1860-1899). A committee was formed
at that time, but the project stalled for lack of a professional
consultant. Just a few weeks ago, quite unexpectedly, a distinguished textile conservator/costume curator offered to guide
this project without compensation. This will make it possible
for us to use the full $1,500 for materials and thus further the
conservation of many more items than originally planned.
However, it appears that most of those who were interested in
this project two years ago are unable to participate at this time.
I hope that some new members will step forward. Simple sewing skills are a plus (for making basic rolls and forms to support the costumes in their storage boxes, not for working on
the costumes themselves) but not essential. The committee
would also welcome anyone interested in working on a program, video, or exhibit to enable us to share this treasure with
the community.
And you are also welcome to join if only to sit with the rest of
us and Ken Smith, the conservator, as he explains in detail
how the items were made, where the various materials came
from, and the occasions on which they would have been worn.
Just as various authors have over the past couple of decades written the history of the world as seen from the perspective of nutmeg, gunpowder, and other specific items,
when Ken describes a dress or cloak, the description includes a lesson in world history.
If you would like to be advised of future activities of the committee, or if you would like more information, please contact
me at 834-5136 or jdoolin@verizon.net Working with Ken is a
fabulous opportunity that I hope to be able to share with you.

Susan Emery: Guiding Spirit of the House Tour
The conclusion of the annual meeting this month marks the
end of Susan Emery‘s six-year stint as a board member of the
Larchmont Historical Society, and this brings to an end her
service as a leading member of the house tour committee. During the course of her two terms on the board, she has worked
on five tours. In 2004 and 2005, she served as co-chair with
Meredith Brawer, and then in 2006 and 2008 she took on the
daunting task of chairing the committee alone. In 2009, she
was joined by a committee to split the tasks; Margi Gristina,
Patti Roberts, and Pier Witek ably helped mount the very successful 2009 tour, ―Built to Last: Stories in Stone.‖ We took a
few moments of Susan‘s time to ask her about the work involved.
What is the most challenging part of organizing the House
Tour each year? There are many attractive and interesting
houses around Larchmont, but it takes special homeowners to
be willing to open their houses to the community. Finding
those homeowners and reassuring them about our process is
always challenging. The Larchmont Historical Society sells
tour tickets primarily to its members and their guests and we
have a docent in every single room throughout the tour. Many
homeowners look at it as an opportunity to finish those household projects they have been intending to complete, and a good
number are very excited about having our volunteer researchers delve into exploring the history of their houses. It‘s an
exciting process.
What part of the experience is most gratifying? The most
gratifying moment is when I follow up with homeowners on
the Monday morning after the tour and I hear such positive
feedback. They invariably say, ―My house was in perfect
shape when we got home...‖ The docents are always highly
praised, and even the homeowners who were a bit apprehensive about the process are also delighted. I am very pleased to
report that I have never had a disgruntled homeowner, which
speaks well for the community, as well as for the Historical
Society.
I know there have been many exciting discoveries as information about the houses is uncovered. Do you have a particular tour or a particular discovery that you expect to
long remember? Every year is amazing, and perhaps because I am just coming away from this year‘s tour, I rather
think it may be most memorable for me. One of our big puzzles this year was 126 Hickory Grove Drive East, the only
2009 house that had been on an earlier tour. Today, however,
researchers have much better access to old documents and
newspapers because so much is now available online, and
Stacy Caffrey, our Century Homes Club researcher who was
working on some deeds relating to the area, noted some additional information on this house. We were troubled by the research that was done many years ago that speculated the bungalow-style house might have been a gun club with the second
floor terrace area used for skeet shooting. The idea that Larchmont Gardens, with the Waterfall House (built as the development‘s original clubhouse) only two doors away and tennis
courts on the property below the terrace, would have supported
House Tour Chair Susan Emery and LHS VP, Programs Patti Roberts

a gun club was an unsettling thought, so we kept digging. We
soon learned that Larchmont Gardens had decreed no hunting or
shooting in the area, which buttressed our instincts. But we
were still looking for an explanation for why the house had an
airy, high-ceilinged slightly formal first floor with a much more
compact second floor above. This rather unusual distribution of
space was partially responsible for the interpretation that the
house might have been a club.
Then we found that the second owner of the land was Michael
Staub, an Italian whom Stacy discovered was a contractor/
builder who had come to the United States in 1880. In 1914,
Staub bought the land where 126 Hickory Grove Drive East
now sits. The house appears to be Arts and Crafts style from the
exterior (the guidelines for houses built in early Larchmont Gardens stipulated that they must be bungalow-style and no more
than one-and-a-half stories in height), but we began to realize
that there was another understandable explanation for the interior design. Staub was Italian, and the house is actually built as
if it has a piano nobile, or a formal primary floor. The piano
nobile is taken from classical Italian architecture, and it is the
floor in a house that contains the principle public, or reception
rooms. The main floor has the symmetry of classical Italian
architecture, with an airy high-ceilinged first floor, embracing a
central courtyard, and a more compact second floor. The Hickory Grove Drive house is actually very Monticello-like from the
inside, in that both have a central entrance hall open to the second floor, with a balcony above. Additionally, both houses have
their formal rooms flanking the entrance hall in a symmetrical
layout, and the second floor rooms are rather low-ceilinged and
small in comparison. The bulk of the building space is used for
the public areas in both.
What do you think the significance of the house tour is for
the community? Certainly, tour goers enjoy what have generally been beautiful spring days for touring various parts of their
community, but on a deeper level, I think the tour reminds us all
of the history of Larchmont and its inhabitants, and it offers a
perfect opportunity to celebrate the spirit of our past.

Walking Tour for Larchmont Newcomer’s Club
On Saturday, May 16th after a rainy start about 11 families, including 17 children, parents and grandparents alike gathered in front of the Larchmont Public Library. Pier
Witek began what we hope will hope will be the first of many future walking tours for
members of the Larchmont Newcomer‘s Club.
Larchmont is rich with history and the hardest part was selecting the area and route for
the tour. Pier Witek explained how Larchmont was first settled and how it developed
while pointing out the earliest houses, churches and summer residences in our area. She
explained the eclectic mix of architectural styles found in the Manor, from Queen Anne
gingerbread to Tudor revival.
We hope to offer this and other tours to interested groups in the area. Please contact Pier Witek at pierwitek@yahoo.com.
The Cemetery Report: Discovering our Quakers
When I first began my internship working on the Barker-Quaker
cemetery project, I was intent on discovering something about
the lives of those people buried there. Their names were familiar, but who were they? What did they do? What were they
like? To answer my questions I had to learn about early American history, early Westchester history and the Quaker faith, customs and rituals.
Believing that tracing these Larchmont/Mamaroneck Quakers
would open up an avenue of support for our burial grounds, I
spend a great deal of time on the genealogies of those people we
had names for. I am confident that the names of those who have
blank or missing headstones are listed on the ancestral charts and
family group sheets that I have created. This work is by no
means complete. My ultimate goal is to learn the names of their
descendants so that they can be contacted and told of our Cemetery Conservation Project.
To begin the process, I utilized the U.S. Federal Census records
from the first enumeration in 1790 through the most recently
available from 1930. The census is a great way to outline a
―people‖ search over many years. Next year, 2010 will bring a
great opportunity to those who will continue this project because
the 1940 census will become accessible for the first time. That
new information will put us ten years closer to the people, the
living descendants of our Quakers, whom we need to find to
help us preserve and protect the burial grounds.
Using my library card and my home computer, I was able to
access The New York Times‘ full text articles for the years 1851
to 2005. I found not only the obituaries for some of our Quakers
and their children and grandchildren but also marriage announcements, business articles and social columns. Another
great source that I came across was Archive.org, a digital repository for out-of-print or hard-to-get texts. The complete minutes
for the Purchase, NY Monthly Meeting, the place where our
Quakers worshiped, were online! The birth, marriages and
deaths for many of our Quakers were neatly transcribed and
bound in 1912 but were not readily accessible. Unfortunately,
the Mamaroneck Preparative Meeting minutes are only available
at the Friends Historical Library on the campus of Swarthmore
College in Pennsylvania. I think a road trip may be in order this
summer…
Some actual trips to the local libraries were inevitable but
proved to be fruitful. The early city directories, Turner‘s 1897,
covering Larchmont, New Rochelle and Pelham, and Polk‘s
1927 and 1930, covering Mamaroneck, Larchmont, Harrison
and Rye, had many listings of interest. J. Thomas Scharf‘s History of Westchester County, N.Y. , two hefty volumes published
in 1886, was made easier to navigate by using E.G. Fuller‘s Index of Personal Names in Scharf’s History of Westchester
County. The local history ―room‖ at the Larchmont Public Library yielded some hidden treasures, too.
To organize all the genealogical information that I came across,
I entered the data, the names, dates and places, into the software
program Family Tree Maker. This program can generate family
group sheets, a variety of charts, timelines and detailed reports.
Scanned photos, maps and documents can be attached to individuals and families to illustrate their lives. All of this could
then be placed on the LHS website.
All of the supporting documents, materials and research aids
have been digitized and are now on a CD which will be given to
our archivist. My hope is that, going forward, anyone needing
this information can access it easily.
It has been my pleasure to work on the Cemetery Conservation
Project, whether in the burial grounds surveying headstones, in
the libraries pouring over dusty volumes or at my computer surfing the internet for clues about the lives of our Quakers. Now
when I drive around the county and see the familiar names that
first intrigues me, I feel like I know who they were and they will
not be forgotten.
