    The Saint Andrew’s Society of the State of New York Established 1756 Join us for the John A. Fraser Memorial Golf Tournament the Society’s 76th Annual Tournament St. Andrew’s Golf Club, Thursday, June 3rd, 2021 The 76th Annual St. Andrew’s Society Golf Tournament will take us back to the birthplace of golf in America and home to our Society’s very first golf outing in 1945: St. Andrew’s Golf Club in Hastings-on-Hudson. The history of Saint Andrew’s Golf Club is replete with “firsts” in American golf. Saint Andrew’s hosted the first U.S. Amateur and “Open” Championships. It was a founding member (along with The Country Club, the Chicago Golf Club, the Newport Country Club and Shinnecock Hills Golf Club) of the United States Golf Association. In 1900 Saint Andrew’s member Charles E. Sands won the first Men’s Olympic Golf Championship at the Paris Games. The magnificent golf course of the Saint Andrew’s Golf Club has been shaped by the skill and imagination of three renowned designers over the course of its nearly 115 years of operation. The first design of the Saint Andrew’s Mount Hope course was the work of William Henry Tucker Sr. who had joined the professional staff in 1895. Having apprenticed under Tom Dunn, whose U.K. based firm was, at the time, the most active golf course construction company in the world, “Willie” Tucker was well qualified to lay out the new course. The project was initiated in 1896; the course officially opened in the summer of 1897.

Horace Trumbauer collection Collection V36 Horace Trumbauer Collection, ca. 1898-ca. 1947 2 boxes, 112 flat files, 16 rolled items, 4 lin. feet Collection V36 Abstract Horace Trumbauer was born in Philadelphia in 1868 and became one of the city’s leading architects in the early middle part of the 20th century. He established his own firm in 1890 and, with a team of talented designers, began designing mostly private residences. In 1894, he completed “Grey Towers” for William Welsh Harrison in Glenside, Pennsylvania. Several years later, he designed “Chelton House” for George W. Elkins and “Lynnewood Hall” for P.A.B. Widener, both in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania. He also created residences in other states such as New Jersey, New York, and Rhode Island. By the middle of his career, Trumbauer had begun designing commercial and public buildings as well. Locally, he designed the Philadelphia Museum of Art in Fairmount Park and parts of the Free Library. He also designed buildings for Jefferson Medical College and the Hahnemann Medical College. He designed several college and university buildings throughout the country, most notably much of Duke University’s campus in Durham, North Carolina. He also designed Widener Library at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
