Talk About It
The Brooklyn Board
For displaced, misplaced and nostalgic ex-Brooklynites.
History
The Original America's Team. Where the name Dodger
comes from?"
By 1880 Manhattanites
routinely called anyone from Brooklyn a "trolley dodger," due to the vast network of street car lines criss-crossing
Brooklyn by then"
History of Coney Island
A growing list of over 21 articles. The original settlers were religi ous dissenters from New England led by Lady
Moody.When they laid out the town, each of the thirty-nine original settlers received an
equal share of the sixteen-acre plot inside the palisade and a corresponding pie shaped
segment of the farm land outside. Decisions were made democratically and you were
subject to fines if you did not attend.
