n the late 18th and 19th centuries, settlers began arriving on what was once the tribal territory of the Rockaway Indians, attracted to nearby fishing industries and the farming possibilities that the area’s fertile land and easy access to water provided.

In 1911 the Amsterdam Development and Sales Company opened a small tract of land surrounding the railroad station, under the direction of Alfred H. Wagg. This land was the foundation for the present Village of Malverne.

The first land developed by the company was the Lindner farm and the first street was named Norwood Avenue, which ran perpendicular to Hempstead Avenue. Malverne’s first house was built on the corner of these two avenues, and was owned by Wagg.

The young community found itself facing many tasks before it could become an independent economic and social entity. Although there was a fire department, established in 1919 by Theodore Martine, Sr., Townsend Ackley and Isaac Cornwall, and the beginnings of a police force existed, the problems of organizing churches, street paving, water supply and street lighting confronted the townspeople.

One would expect that the native farmers might resent the rapid changes proposed by the newcomers. However, it is said that the cooperation shown by the two groups was nothing less than remarkable.

In 1910, the “Dinky” replaced the steam train as the main mode of transportation for Malvernites.

The “Dinky” was a single car run by an electric storage battery and it looked like an ordinary trolley car. Many people referred to it as the “Toonerville Trolley.” John Hughes was the famous conductor of the “Dinky,” which was extremely temperamental and would often not operate in cold temperatures, forcing Malvernites to walk from Valley Stream.

The First World War put a damper on Malverne’s further development. The flu epidemic, the coal shortage and the general anxiety of the winter of

Christina Daly/Herald

1918 made this a hard period for all.

After the war, the development of Malverne accelerated. It seemed that the community’s biggest problem was whether or not to incorporate. Valid arguments both for and against the move were advanced at a meeting held at the Fire House on Oct. 29, 1920.

In the end, the proponents for incorporation were victorious. On Dec. 1, an election was held, and Edward J. Christopher was elected the first village president. Also elected were trustees Charles Weber, Isaac Cornwall, John Wicks and Eugene Dressner.

The official day of incorporation was April 4, 1921.

Malverne, with a population of 700, became the newest and smallest incorporated village in New York state.

During the early 1920s Malvernites enjoyed themselves thoroughly. The Blossom Heath Inn in Lynbrook was in its heyday, prohibition was in effect, people were buying new cars, and Malverne provided many different kinds of recreation, including the Malverne Swimming Club and the Thursday Night Bowling Club.

Meanwhile, Malverne was expanding. Streets were paved, drainage systems installed and the village’s population grew. The 1940 census showed that Malverne had achieved first class village status, with a population of 5,203. This new status brought added responsibilities for the village’s administration. The house census stood at 1,444 occupied homes, 30 unoccupied and 46 under construction.

The 1940 budget rose in proportion and amounted to $117,230 with the tax rate at $.87.

Monthly reports on new buildings showed a regular increase, the new firehouse was built in 1939 and a high school was built. In recent decades, Malverne has continued to grow and prosper, keeping its identity as a high quality, parklike suburb neighboring New York City.

Village of Malverne

arly this spring, I was pleasantly surprised to see several groups of young visitors walking on Hempstead Avenue and Church Street. I took a moment to stop by and speak with a woman who appeared to be their teacher. She introduced herself and explained that the students were on a field trip to see “suburbia.” How wonderful that they selected Malverne. I could not pass up the opportunity to tell them about our beautiful village and provide a tour which included the police station, village hall, the library and Crossroads Farm.

Shortly thereafter, I received thank you notes from every student. I would like to share some of their comments with you: n

Dear Mayor Patty, I really enjoyed the trip and told half of my family about it. I loved the flags.

I enjoyed meeting the people in the community, and I loved the flowers. I was so happy to visit suburbia that I even forgot to sit down and eat my lunch.

My favorite part is that I got to see the inside of a court and sit in the judge’s chair. I hope I can visit again.

Thank you for showing me the farm and your sweet community.

It was so much fun going to suburbia. They even have a bakery.

Every note was filled with compliments about our beautiful and quaint village.

I am proud of Malverne and proud of its residents, volunteers, merchants and employees who all contribute to the richness of our community. From Malverne’s designation as Tree City USA for the past 27 years, to the beautiful flags that line Hempstead Avenue, and the care and attention given to our parks and playgrounds, I am always pleased to say

that Malverne is my home.

In every organization, house of worship or club throughout the village, we see principles and cherished traditions handed down from one generation to the next. We gather excitedly to await the arrival of Santa during our annual Holiday Lighting event; we shiver together awaiting the Patricia ann groundhog’s prediction on an norrisearly morning in February; we McDonald show our patriotism as we watch or march in the Memorial Day parade, and we bow our heads together and remember on September 11th. We share years of common memories — playing at Summer Rec, enjoying open air concerts, buying pumpkins at the farm, and enjoying the Merchants Fair in the fall. Year after year, I find that it is the people who we value the most.

Our location in the heart of Nassau’s south shore completes the narrative of who we are and why we choose to reside here. In less than an hour, we can be in the middle of Times Square or Jones Beach.

The best of the world is within our easy reach.

Malverne continues as a reflection of the caring, hard-working families who built a gracious and beautiful village. This year, we lost a number of those individuals who made our community better for their selfless giving. We will miss them.

Looking ahead, we will continue to work together to protect the common vision that we share and to preserve our strong village. As Mayor, I have the advantage of seeing firsthand the next generation who commit themselves to our community. It’s clear that our future is in good hands.

West Hempstead History

Courtesy West Hempstead Historical Society

West Hempstead Historical Society members and guests celebrated the unveiling of historical photo displays.

W

est Hempstead, a 4-square-mile unincorporated area within the Town of Hempstead, was once a dense woodland.

While the validity of the often-taught concept of 13 tribes inhabiting Long Island at the time of European colonization has recently been questioned, what is known is that the area that is now West Hempstead was used as a gathering place by Algonquian-speaking natives because of its central location.

In the fall of 1643, two enterprising gentlemen, the Rev. Robert Fordham and John Carman, crossed Long Island Sound by rowboat to negotiate with the local Indians for a tract of land upon which to establish a new community. According to the legend, representatives of the Massapequak, Mericoke, Matinecock and Rockaway tribes met with the men at a site slightly west of the current Denton Green.

The Indians sold approximately 64,000 acres, the present day towns of Hempstead and North Hempstead, for items worth less than $100 today.

It has been suggested that the new settlement was called Hempstead as a reminder of the English town of Hemel-Hempstead where most of the original settlers were born.

In 1776, the area that is now called Lakeview was the site of what is thought by some historians as the first bloodshed of the Revolutionary War, called the Skirmish at DeMott’s mill. At the time, most of Hempstead was loyal to British rule.

After the war, the area was a flourishing farm community when President George Washington, originally a plantation owner, traveled there in 1790 and commented on the agricultural techniques. Farmer Joseph Gildersleeve built a house on Hempstead Turnpike in 1794. His farm was later purchased by Hiram K. Bedell, who built a larger house about 1835. The Bedell house has since been

moved to the Old Bethpage Village Restoration.

In the early 1800s Oliver’s Eagle Flour Mill, in what is now Hempstead Lake State Park, was the largest gristmill on Long Island. The mill’s days, however, were cut short when the land was slated to become a reservoir for the growing population of Brooklyn.

During the late 1830s, future poet Walt Whitman served as the schoolmaster of the Trimming Square school district, located at the meeting point of Franklin Square, Garden City South and West Hempstead, for three months.

In the late 1800s, St. Ann’s Health Resort opened in West Hempstead and would evolve over the years into what is now Winthrop-University Hospital in Mineola, Long Island’s first voluntary hospital.

The Long Island Rail Road built a station on Hempstead Turnpike west of Hempstead Village in 1891. The railroad provided service to Mineola until 1935, when West Hempstead station became a terminal. During this time, inventor and aviator Orville Wright lived in West Hempstead. During the Great Depression of the 1930s, one-quarter of West Hempstead land went on the auction block.

After World War II, West Hempstead joined other communities in accommodating large numbers of soldiers returning from the war. West Hempstead’s centralized location close to three LIRR lines and with its own exit on the Southern State Parkway drew people from near and far. Major thoroughfares Hempstead Turnpike, Hempstead Avenue and Woodfield Road have also contributed to its growth.

The population of the hamlet is quite diverse, as is the number of religious denominations within its borders.

West Hempstead scHools The West Hempstead Union Free School District recognizes the unique value of each student. It is dedicated to the success of each student based on the highest standards of excellence in education. Each student will be challenged to achieve mastery in all subject areas in an educational atmosphere that strives to build positive self-esteem, mutual respect for others, and a life-long quest for learning.

The legal name of this school district is the West Hempstead Union Free School District. The boundaries of the district have been set under state law. The State Education Department maintains a close check on standards and what has become state law through the mandates of our legislature. The state allows a local Board of Education to set whatever additional policies may be deemed necessary for the proper function of the District’s schools. The Board is comprised of seven public-spirited citizens who maintain residences within the District and who serve without financial compensation in the best interests of their community.

Board members are elected to office for terms of three years and once a year the members of the Board elect a president and vice president to preside over their meetings.

Consisting of a primary school, intermediate school, middle school and a high school, the Malverne Union Free School District has set stringent goals since it began as a single schoolhouse more than 160 years ago.

Since then, Malverne has seen its school district grow in every aspect.

High educational quality is a hallmark of the elementary schools.

Small class sizes, with a student-toteacher ratio of approximately 20 to 1, ensure that all chiwldren receive the attention they deserve.

At the Howard. T. Herber Middle School there are diverse programs, including a full roster of clubs, so youngsters have an opportunity to

explore various interests. The academic schedule is progressively individualized from the middle school to the high school, making the transition smooth.

Malverne High School is one of the most effective secondary schools in the country and was recently named a School of Opportunity Gold Award recipient by the National Education Policy Center. A strong academic emphasis is complemented by a comprehensive career awareness program, so graduates are ready to make wise choices about their future lives.

Since its birth, the district’s goal has been the total success of all children, where students, educators and parents can collaborate to provide for the education of children as independent, lifelong learners.

Town and County

Town of hempsTead

The Town of Hempstead, founded in 1644, is the largest township in the United States, encompassing 142 square miles with a population of approximately 760,000 people. Within the Town there are 34 unincorporated areas and 22 incorporated villages, more than 65 parks and marinas, and 2,500 miles of roads.

Under the current system, the Town of Hempstead is overseen by a town supervisor — currently Republican Kate Murray — and a six-member Town Council. The six members of the council are elected from one of six councilmatic districts. The supervisor has a two-year term, and the council members have a four-year term of office.

The supervisor serves as the chief executive officer of town government. She presides over all town board meetings, directing the legislative and administrative functions of that body. The supervisor also oversees the day-to-day operations of a municipal government of 24 major departments, employing just more than 2,100 people. As the chief financial officer of the township, the supervisor is responsible for the creation and the implementation of a town budget.

Council members are responsible for adopting the annual budget, amending the town code and the building zone ordinances, adopting all traffic regulations and hearing applications for changes of zone and special exceptions to zoning codes.
