Croton history is a regular feature of the Chronicle and we hope to have many more stories in the coming period!

This is an interesting and often forgotten history of Croton. Thanks for sharing. The homes are beautiful and so is the landscape there.

Hi Bruce. My wife's family lived on Mt. Airy road in the mid to late 50s. He was a well regarded psychiatrist and were friends with Cedric and Molly Belfridge who were drive out of the country as communists. They had a lovely stone house. Their name was Wolberg. My wife and sister wen to school in Croton until they moved to NYC in the 60s.
