My Grandfather was foreman over the grooms on the Rockefeller Estate in Pocantico Hills. My mother grew up there. My grandfather had a house as the in charge and they had a bunkhouse for the grooms. They had a staff of around 15 grooms as they had show horses, riding horses, and horses pulling wagons around still. Unlike me my grandfather never talked much, and had a reputation as a brawler. I hope he didn't do anything bad for that evil family. He had showed me how to make a hangman's noose.

I think after John D. Rockefeller died my grandfather left, because his second career was working as a supervisor of the gardening crew for the Westchester County Schools.

My family (Mother, Grand Parents, siblings) moved to Florida in 1962 and I have visited NY 3 times as an adult, the last time was in 2005, I always stopped by the Sleepy Hollow City Hall ( I was born in North Tarrytown which was annexed into S.H.) to get a new copy of my Birth Cert. and when the Lady saw my mother's maiden name and we (Siblings and I) talked with her about our family, she was the one who told us about my grandfather being a tough cookie.

Odd how the family tree branches twist and turn, we are descendants of Daniel D Tompkins who was the 6th VP of the USA and Governor of NY before that. He wrote the NY state Legislature as he was leaving to be VP in support of emancipation in 1817 decades before the civil war..

I'd first learned about what scumbags the Rockefellers were from a documentary on the Ludlow Massacre in Colorado. Since then and the establishment of the Fed. Reserve just prior, they have been a huge part of the evil we are now facing.
