Pikesville Village - History published 1841 "Pikesville Village was incorporated in 1826. It is situated 12 miles north of Sing Sing, and immediately south of the southern termination of the highlands. An old engraving of Peekskill shows: The old Dutch Reformed and the Episcopal church are visible on the right; the Methodist and the Presbyterian church, having a small tower, are on the left. The elevated spire of the new Dutch Reformed church is in the central part of the view. Hudson River, with the towering highlands, is seen in the distance. The village represented is situated on an elevation 200 feet above the level of the river, half a mile from the landing, on both sides of a deep ravine. There are in the village a bank, 2 printing offices, 2 large iron foundries, etc. There is an academy, a large edifice, situated on a commanding eminence at the south. The village contains upwards of 200 dwellings and 2 churches for Friends, besides those mention above. There is a steamboat ferry at this place to Caldwell's landing, on the opposite side of the Hudson, two miles distant. Verplank's point and Continental village, places distinguished in the revolutionary war, are within the limits of this town. This latter place, which had barracks for 2,000 men, was burnt by the British in October, 1777."

Hi, I just rejoined this list after many years and am disappointed that all the posts seem to be gatewayed from the bulletin board. Is there no more excited chat among mailing list subscribers? I have been working on my Bedford roots for 30 years, own the Knowlton histories and all the Bedford Historical Society publications done for the bicentennial, and have made trips to the township (the most recent last month) and other major repositories. Am related to most of the people living on Guard Hill Road in the 19th century and before. Am still working on my database. I suppose my most wanted item is the wife of Robert Knowlton (ca. 1704-1798) who lived his whole life in Bedford and was the father of Ephraim (ca. 1740-1784), Charity (m Foster), and Elizabeth (m Woolsey). Happy to hear from anyone else connected--too many surnames to list. Elizabeth W. Knowlton http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?db=winspeare
