Thomas Rushmore (died c.1682), a Quaker, arrived on Long Island from Wales in 1658. He joined four Englishman and three Dutchmen in making an alliance for land with five Long Island Native American tribes. He married Martha Hicks in Hempstead, N.Y., in 1659 and started a dairy farm near the intersection of Old Westbury Road and Whitney Lane in Old Westbury, N.Y. Five subsequent generations of Rushmores went on to run the farm at this location. They intermarried with members of some of Long Island’s most notable families, including the Townsend, Hicks, Titus, Valentine, Post, Willets, and Willits families. When the Long Island Rail Road branched out to Oyster Bay, N.Y., the Rushmores decided to sell the Old Westbury farm and buy land closer to the railroad. (This would make it easier for them to ship their product to market.) In 1845, Thomas Rushmore (1799-1878) and Jane (Valentine) Rushmore (1806-1896) bought 150 acres of land in Roslyn, N.Y.
