Divided Loyalties - Revolutionary War on the Aqueduct

The Old Croton Aqueduct between Dobbs Ferry and Hastings-on-Hudson crosses several colonial tenant farms impacted by the Revolutionary War. Walk and learn how the war divided neighbors and families into patriots or loyalists and everything in between. Discuss their lives in the dangerous, war-torn contested ground of Westchester County and how it shaped our area following its conclusion. This free, two-hour tour is offered part of New York State’s Path Through History Weekend and is done in in partnership with Revolutionary Westchester 250, the Old Croton Aqueduct State Historic Park, and Friends of the Old Croton Aqueduct. It will cover about 4 miles. Tour starts at the Mercy College parking lot next to the Smith Ball Field. We will be walking to Revolutionary Walk in Hastings and back. This walk may be rescheduled due to bad weather.
