TOMPKINSVILLE

This article appears in Volume V26, Page 1064 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: THE-TOO
TOMPKINSVILLE , a former
village
  of Richmond county, New
York
 , U.S.A., since 1898 a part of the borough of Richmond, New
York
  City. It is on the N.E. shore of Staten
Island
  in New York Bay, about 5z m. S. by W. of the southern extremity of Manhattan
Island
 , and is a residential
district
  of New York City. Tompkinsville was laid out in 18141815 upon a
tract
  of about 700 acres, most of which was owned by Daniel D.
Tompkins. It was chartered as a
village
  in 1823, but because of legal flaws the charter was revoked soon after Tompkins's death (in 1825), and thereafter the village was gradually absorbed by New Brighton and Edgewater (both incorporated in 1866), though the locality continued to be called Tompkinsville.
