A Chronicle of the Wood Family
YORKSHIRE TO WESTCHESTER A CHRONICLE OF THE WOOD FAMILY By_ HERBERT BARBER HOWE PUBLISHED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA By THE TUTTLE PususHING Co., INC. · Edwin F. Sharp, Lessee RUTLAND, VERMONT 1948 ]AMES Woon 1762-1852 THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO THE COUSINS GRACE WOOD HAVILAND AND ELIZABETH RUNYON HOWE WHO OWN THE HOUSES BUILT BY THEIR GRANDFATHERS ON THE LAND ACQUIRED BY THEIR GREAT-GREAT-GRANDFATHER COUNTY OFFICE BUILDING WHITE PLAINS, NEW YORK The Westchester County Historical Society welcomes this volume as an important addition to the history of a rapidly changing country side. Mr. Howe, who is the highly effective editor of the Society's Bulletin, has been resourceful in his research and engaging in his presentation of his findings. Many a genealogical clue has been fol lowed to the point where an important discovery concerning persons or events was possible. Yet Mr. Howe is insistent that there are still loose ends in his study; for the absence of records can thwart the most determined chronicler. The story of the Wood family, from the days of the restless Puri tans in Yorkshire to the present era in Westchester, is richly furnished with exciting incidents and worthy achievements. The Tory an cestor during the American Revolution, who migrated to Nova Scotia and there built for himself a new life, is typical of many per sons in Westchester, who could not follow the signers of the Declara tion of Independence in their decision to break allegiance ro the British Empire. In the case of the Wood family the conflicting theories of empire brought a break in family ties during those troub lous years; and the task of the family historian was thus made much more difficult. -

Bacterial and Viral Source Tracking in the Pocantico and Sparkill Creek Watersheds
NEW YORK STATE WATER RESOURCES INSTITUTE Department of Biological and Environmental Engineering 230 Riley-Robb Hall, Cornell University Tel: (607) 254-7163 Ithaca, NY 14853-5701 Fax: (607) 255-4449 http://wri.cals.cornell.edu Email: [email protected] Bacterial and Viral Source Tracking in the Pocantico and Sparkill Creek Watersheds Bernadette J. Connors, PhD Dominican College Science Department [email protected] Abstract In New York State, 792 waterbodies are on the “Impaired/TMDL” list, which identifies bodies of water that might require remediation. The Sparkill Creek, placed on the list first in 2010, empties into the Hudson River. It faces issues with stormwater runoff, causing elevated levels of pathogens in the creek and decreased oxygen availability. According to published data, the levels of the indicator bacteria are 24 times higher than EPA standards. The Pocantico River, located in Westchester County, faces many of these same issues. Both were tested for microbial and coliphage loads and diversity as related to weather events. Coliform and E. coli levels were measured, with a significant increase found with a rainfall event for both sampling locations. The coliphage numbers and diversity were also significantly different with a rain event. Microbial community analyses were also completed. Of note was increased prevalence of Enterobacter and Escherichia three miles from the mouth of the creek. Future studies include a more thorough analysis of the microbial community data in both time and space, along with further testing of the fungal, bacterial, and algal populations. Bacterial and Viral Source Tracking in the Pocantico and Sparkill Creek Watersheds Three Summary Points of Interest • Microbial community profiling yields a more comprehensive view of challenges faced by aquatic ecosystems. -

Distribution of Ddt, Chlordane, and Total Pcb's in Bed Sediments in the Hudson River Basin
NYES&E, Vol. 3, No. 1, Spring 1997 DISTRIBUTION OF DDT, CHLORDANE, AND TOTAL PCB'S IN BED SEDIMENTS IN THE HUDSON RIVER BASIN Patrick J. Phillips1, Karen Riva-Murray1, Hannah M. Hollister2, and Elizabeth A. Flanary1. 1U.S. Geological Survey, 425 Jordan Road, Troy NY 12180. 2Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Troy NY 12180. Abstract Data from streambed-sediment samples collected from 45 sites in the Hudson River Basin and analyzed for organochlorine compounds indicate that residues of DDT, chlordane, and PCB's can be detected even though use of these compounds has been banned for 10 or more years. Previous studies indicate that DDT and chlordane were widely used in a variety of land use settings in the basin, whereas PCB's were introduced into Hudson and Mohawk Rivers mostly as point discharges at a few locations. Detection limits for DDT and chlordane residues in this study were generally 1 µg/kg, and that for total PCB's was 50 µg/kg. Some form of DDT was detected in more than 60 percent of the samples, and some form of chlordane was found in about 30 percent; PCB's were found in about 33 percent of the samples. Median concentrations for p,p’- DDE (the DDT residue with the highest concentration) were highest in samples from sites representing urban areas (median concentration 5.3 µg/kg) and lower in samples from sites in large watersheds (1.25 µg/kg) and at sites in nonurban watersheds. (Urban watershed were defined as those with a population density of more than 60/km2; nonurban watersheds as those with a population density of less than 60/km2, and large watersheds as those encompassing more than 1,300 km2. -

Nonpoint Source Implementation of Phase II Phosphorous TMDLS In
Interim Report Nonpoint Source Implementation Of The Phase II Phosphorus TMDLs In The New York City Watershed March 2002 Prepared in accordance with the New York City Watershed Memorandum of Agreement (January 1997). New York State Department of Environmental Conservation Division of Water P R E F A C E This report represents the next step in the implementation process for phosphorus load reductions in the New York City (NYC) Watershed. It has been prepared in accordance with the NYC Watershed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA, January 1997) and focuses on nonpoint source (NPS) implementation efforts that can contribute to the attainment of Phase II Phosphorus Total Maximum Daily Loads (TMDLs). The report provides a snapshot of the current status of implementation programs, projects and activities and next steps toward a final implementation plan. It has been released as “Interim” since it does not include all of the specific implementation components outlined in the MOA and expanded upon in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA’s) October 16, 2000 implementation strategy letter. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) remains committed to the development of a final implementation plan. The Phase II Phosphorus TMDLs identified eight NYC reservoirs as water quality limited and needing nonpoint (NPS) reductions. These reservoirs are in the Croton portion of the City’s watershed and are located east of the Hudson River . Thus, the timing of the final implementation plan will depend on the findings and completion of Croton Planning in Putnam and Westchester Counties, as well as the implementation of Phase II Stormwater Regulations and continued monitoring in the Croton Watershed. -

Water-Quality Assessment of the Hudson River Basin in New York and Adjacent States −
Water-quality Assessment Of The Hudson River Basin In New York And Adjacent States − Analysis of available nutrient, pesticide, volatile organic compound, and suspended-sediment data, 1970-90 By Patrick J. Phillips and Dorothea W. Hanchar _____________________________________ U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Water-Resources Investigations Report 96-4065 Troy, New York 1996 i U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR BRUCE BABBITT, Secretary U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY Gordon Eaton, Director For additional information Copies of this report can be write to: purchased from: U.S. Geological Survey District Chief Branch of Information Services U.S. Geological Survey, WRD Federal Center 425 Jordan Road Box 25425 Troy, N.Y. 12180 Denver, CO 80225-8286 ii FOREWORD The mission of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) is to assess the quantity and quality of the earth resources of the Nation and to provide information that will assist resource managers and policymakers at Federal, State, and local levels in making sound decisions. Assessment of water-quality conditions and trends is an important part of this overall mission. One of the greatest challenges faced by water-resources scientists is acquiring reliable information that will guide the use and protection of the Nation's water resources. That challenge is being addressed by Federal, State, interstate, and local water-resource agencies and by many academic institutions. These organizations are collecting water-quality data for a host of purposes that include: compliance with permits and water-supply standards; development of remediation plans for a specific contamination problem; operational decisions on industrial, wastewater, or water-supply facilities; and research on factors that affect water quality.
