Hendrik Onderdonk is my direct ancestor, and I made a special trip to Roselyn to visit Washington Manor and have lunch there with my family. They let me explore the whole building. Now I just ahve to figure out how to visit again, and have a great steak at Hendrik's tavern. Looks like great food! for those interested and/or connected to this one, there is also the Onderdonk van der Ende homestead, kept as a museum and event site in Queens, and the Tredwell Mansion on lower 5th Avenue. Seabury Tredwell was also a direct descendent of Hendrik.
I used to take Peggy Gerrys black and white photo documentation of many historic buildings in town. Very clear in my memory was going into the GW Manor during a full on gutting in perhaps the late 80s. We covered every nook and cranny of the building that I grew up going to for so many special occasions. It really was thrilling to get into the cellar, the attic, etc and document the construction of the building before all never covering and changes were made. Im sure the negatives are still in your files.

Patty, thanks for checking in. There are thousands of slides and photos that we are currently sorting through. A real Roslyn history treasure hunt!
I was her next door neighbor and did some work for her and accompanied her to MANY sites for photographing and I also printed black and whites of tons of her negatives from English garden tours. If you ever have questions let me know. The village was a wonderful assortment of interesting families back then.
