GPL Local Hiistory "My Hometown: Tarrytown" Online

Explore the history of Tarrytown without leaving home!

The first European settlers of Tarrytown were Dutch farmers, fur trappers, and fishermen. Records show that the first Dutch residence in Tarrytown was built in 1645; however, the exact location of this residence is not known. Tarrytown sits within the lands of the former Dutch Colony of New Netherland which became English territory in 1674 with the signing of the Treaty of Westminster. The name "Tarrytown"  may come from the Dutch tarwe, meaning "wheat"

Join us to learn more about the history and people of this intriguing village in the Town of Greenburgh.
