Robert, totally agree.
Our new chairperson of the Board Development and Membership Committee is actively seeking a diverse group of new trustees. Anyone interested, please contact Jordan Fensterman at [email protected] .
thanks Howard; glad you are headed in that direction. I am not pandering to women or minorities, i think it is just good to enlarge different perspectives.

Hi Robert, Catherine Chester a long time Trustee decided she wanted to retire from the Board a few weeks ago. Even before her retirement diversification and expansion of the group of trustees was intended. I agreed to take on the task at the last Board meeting. I am committed to help it happen. If you or anyone else reading this can suggest candidates who might be interested please e-mail the names and contact information to [email protected]. -Jordan
Great article--very useful in several ways. I'll mention only its description of the contents of it as a museum. There is an old dress on the third floor of 36 Main. I hope it still there--after about ten years--my wife, an expert in antique textiles--loved it and at that time had the staff to restore it.
Howard, what a great assembling of historical materials. The Roslyn Estates map of 1907 (in the map of 1914) is of particular interest to me as the Village Historian. I have never seen the color version of the map (only a copy in black and white) and the Zoom feature makes it possible to read the details now. I will need to study it further, but it seems the houses in red are those contracted by Dean Alvord (the earliest of those you've help date as 1907-08) but those in black seem to have existed at some time before he developed RE. If so, that is revolutionary in my understanding. A suggestion: this map should be linked also to the section in the site on RE. Thank you so much for all your research and presentation.
I didn’t know that Paul was twice married, only knew about Joanne Woodward. Mrs. Paul Newman that is pictured in the article is Jacqueline Witte. They were married 1949 thru 1958. They had 3 children, then Paul and Joanne had 3 children as well.
This is such great news. I am so grateful to see such an active and productive team at Roslyn Landmark Society. It is refreshing to know that this history minded group has put preservation at the foreground making Roslyn a leader in the landmark restoration field. Thank you!

From News: The acting Bylaws were approved and nine trustees were elected at the 2021 Annual Meeting
I heartily approve of the Society but amazed you don't have one woman or minority on the Board. Might be something to consider next election.
Robert, totally agree.

Interesting question and answer. Great work, John!
From News: Roslyn Landmark Society question of the day: What did the grist mill grist-corn, rice , buckwheat, lentil or wheat?
Bob, thanks for the comment. All the Roslyn Estates profiles now have the 1914 map included as an asset. Howard
