User:Throggmorton

Hello, this account is named after a deviation of the Dutch immigrant farmer John Throckmorton, who owned the land in the east of the Bronx, NY, now "Throggs Neck."

I was first motivated to create the a Wikipedia account to contribute to the photos in the List of Central Park Statutes, seeing that it was unfinished.

My first contribution to Wikisource was a series of correspondences between Pope Pius IX, the archbishop of New York during the Civil War, and Jefferson Davis.
