Info on Packanack Lake- taken directly from PackanackLake.com website. 

 

 Packanack Lake is an exclusive community in Wayne, New Jersey located approximately 30 minutes northwest of New York City.

 

The Pacquanac Indians first farmed, fished and hunted in this area.  The tribe is remembered in the very name Packanack that is said to mean, "land made clear for cultivation".

 

In 1780 this was farming country and marshlands.  Close by were the headquarters of General George Washington at the Dey Mansion and Major-General Marquis de Lafayette at the Van Saun House.  These historic landmarks can still be seen today.

 

In 1925 Mr. Joseph T. Castles purchased 26 farms or approximately 700 acres of the area and began laying the groundwork for the development of a year-round resort community.

 

What we know today as Packanack sat on two ridges running in roughly a north-south direction separated by a valley of marshland.  In 1928 it would be cleared of trees and brush, blocked at the south with an earth and clay dam to form Packanack Lake.  Roads were built. Water and sewer mains were laid and a sewage disposal system constructed. The real estate firm of Packanack Lake, Inc. was formed; work began on the Clubhouse as well as seventeen log cabins and small Cape Cod homes.

 

Today Packanack is a thriving suburban community with two beaches and an active lifestyle of approximately 1,500 homes.  Packanack Lake Country Club and Community Association offers swimming, golf, tennis, fishing, boating, youth and adult sports as well as many special interest clubs to our members.  Packanack is a wonderful community to live in, raise a family, make lasting friendships, enjoy recreational facilities as well as socialize.

Culver Lake is one of the finest bodies of fresh water in the East.  It has an area of approximately 555 acres and a shoreline roughly six and a half miles long.  Culver Lake is 830 feet above sea level and has a maximum depth of about fifty feet. Swimming, boating, fishing, waterskiing, ice skating, ice fishing and snowmobiling are major lake sports. The clubhouse is a place ot meet friends, relax and enjoy the lake, or participate in the wide variety of activities and social events sponsored by the clubs.  

Certified Lifeguards supervise swimming at our clubhouse beach during specific hours. Members may launch their boats at the ramp adjoining the clubhouse property.  

We all benefit from the foresight of those who years ago formed the Normanoch Association and raised the funds to purchase and preserve the lake for the exclusive use of its members from that time forward.  Each generation of directors that inherits this trust is committed to administering the association in such a way as to maintain the beauty, health, and safety of Culver Lake for the future.  

Association members have enjoyed Culver Lake together for many years using the rules and regulations to govern their actions. The directors respectfully request that all members familiarize themselves with its contents, that they use the lake in accordance with its rules, and that they encourage other members to do the same.</description>

____________________________________________________________________________________________ 

Wayne Township and its 27 square miles of rolling, lake darted country was not always known as Wayne.  It was not always part of Passaic County.  Long before the coming of the White Man, it was inhabited by quiet, industrious Indians who farmed the rich meadowlands and hunted and fished in the woods and streams.  Their legacy to us lies in the many place names of Indian origin, which have given their identity to our countryside. 

In 1694, the English in New York City sent a young surveyor, miner and land speculator named Arent Schuyler on a secret mission to North Jersey and beyond to check on a rumor that the French were trying to rouse the Indians to rebel against the English.  Schuyler found the rumor to be false, but discovered a rich fertile valley where the Indians grew a variety of crops. Schuyler reported his findings to the English in New York City; then convinced seven prominent men to invest in the purchase of the land he referred to as the Pompton Valley.  These men were Major Anthony Brockholst, Samuel Bayard, Samuel Berry, Hendrick and David Mandeville, George Ryerson and John Mead.  The seven chose Schuyler to be negotiator with the Indians for the Indian Rights to the area.  Samual Bayard was chosen to deal with the East Jersey Company who had the land rights from the King of England.  Approximately 5,000 acres were purchased for 250 pounds and wampum (shells the size and shape of a cigarette used for barter). 

The purchase of the land was concluded on November 11, 1695.  The area now known as Wayne Township then became part of New Barbadoes in Essex County. In 1710, the same area became part of Saddle River Township in Bergen County.  Arent Schuyler moved to Belleville, New Jersey, where his servant brought him a bit of metal that unearthed a copper mine. 

In 1837, the residents of Wayne found themselves in Manchester Township in the newly named Passaic County. 

Finally, on April 12, 1847 the first Wayne Township organization meeting was held at the Henry Casey House on the Paterson Hamburg Turnpike.  The first mayor, called the Chairman of the Township Committee until 1962, was William S. Hogencamp.  The Citizens voted to name the town for the dashing hero of the Revolution, General Anthony Wayne. 

Throughout the 18th and 19th Centuries, Wayne Township was a peaceful farming community.  It had its share of grist, saw and cider mills, as well as blacksmith shops.  Family wills and documents show evidence of local slavery on the farmsteads. Gradual abolition of slavery in New Jersey began in 1804, but the practice continued under the name of “apprenticeship” until the federal government abolished it in 1865 by the Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution. There were few local industries.  Some iron was mined, and brick yards made use of rich deposits of clay.  Gunpowder was made by the firm of Laflin and Rand on Ryerson Avenue. 

The Morris Canal ran through the southwestern part of Wayne carrying produce to market and coal from Pennsylvania.  The canal was replaced by the railroad at the end of the 19th Century.  One railroad car could carry more than a canal boat and be used the year round.  Season freezing of the canal limited its use.  The railroad brought vacationers, as well as produce, in the early 20th century. In the summer hordes of people from Manhattan and Brooklyn came to live in the summer bungalows and enjoy the beautiful rivers. 

World War II made tremendous change to Wayne.  Summer bungalows were converted to year round living residences to accommodate the people moving here to work in war related industries.  Following the war, farmland was converted to residential living.  The growth of Wayne resulted in a new form of government in the 1960's.  A mayor, council, business administrator type of government was instituted in 1962.  An antiquated postal system was modernized by an energetic leadership of the local Chamber of Commerce. 

Modern highways have made Wayne Township a virtual crossroad in North Jersey.  Routes 23, 46 and 80 and the Paterson Hamburg Turnpike have made Wayne easily accessed for business and homes.  Several national firms have located here. 

Education instruction began in Wayne in a dugout school near Brandon Avenue.  Legend says Anthony Wayne sheltered his horse here during the Revolution.  Today Wayne's excellent schools number nine elementary, two middle and two senior high schools in addition to several private schools for all ages. 

The first religious house of worship was the Preakness Reformed Church, although now there are many in number and denomination. 

Wayne has six historic houses that are on the State and National Registers: Schuyler-Colfax House, Dey Mansion, Van Riper-Hopper House, Mead-Van Duyne House, Van Saun House and Ryerson House. In addition, there are twenty historically significant sites. 

Over the years Wayne has had nationally known individuals as residents: namely Albert Payson Terhune, the famous writer of collie dog books; Cecil DeMille, the movie mogul; and LeGrand Parish, the inventor of the Westinghouse air brake, a coupling device, and fire brick boxes. 

Another national celebrity was the Preakness horse. Purchased in 1868 by Milton Holbrook Sandford, owner of the Preakness Stables at the corner of Valley Road and Preakness Avenue, for $4,000.  On his maiden start Preakness was entered into the "Dinner Plate Stakes" at the new Pimlico race Track in Maryland. Preakness won the first race on October 25th, 1870.  In 1873 the Maryland Jockey Club started a new racing classic for three year olds and named it "The Preakness" in honor of the first horse to win a race at Pimlico. 

Today Wayne offers many things for people of all ages; nursery schools, excellent elementary and secondary schools, churches for all faiths, an excellent modern library, convenient shopping centers, swimming pools, lakes and organized recreation for all to provide quality living for today's citizens.

 Town History: 
 As you drive west along Route 208/287 approaching the Ramapo River, it is hard to imagine that 300 years ago this interstate highway may have been a quiet tree-lined path in a little valley used by the Minsi Indians of the Lenni Lenape tribe. The first Dutch settlers, who were stopped by the Ramapo River at the end of the path that is now Franklin Avenue, became so enamored of the area that they bought some 5,500 acres of it. The Minsi enjoyed these fertile valleys, hunted in the woods and fished in the "Ramapaugh" or "river of many round ponds". Thus, the Dutch called their settlement "De Panne" or the "The Ponds". Throughout the 18th century, Oakland evolved into a serene farming and lumbering area with numerous mills powered by the waters of the Ramapo River and numerous streams. In 1870 the town's name was changed from "The Ponds" to Oakland. After World War II, Oakland began its rapid development of permanent residents as commuting time to work became less and country living became more desirable. In the 1950's, Oakland was a non-farm community earning its title as “The Valley of Homes”.

During the early 1990's a Planned Residential Development known as "The Glens" was constructed adding 583 town houses, coach homes and condominium apartments to the housing stock of the Township. Commercial development includes two well defined local business centers, Pompton Plains and Pequannock and Route 23 corridor.

      <description>10 ELM ST.,  BUTLER, NJ  07405&lt;br /&gt;This adorable 3 BR 2 Full Bath cape is in need of some TLC. Although updated in 2004 there are still some things that need to be finished. The home is being sold "AS IS" for the seller cannot afford to do any repairs. Located very close to schools, shopping, busses and all highways, this is a great home with a lot of potential just looking for your finishing touches!</description>

      <description>262 DAVIS RD.,  HARDYSTON, NJ  07416&lt;br /&gt;Wonderful 2/3 BR ranch located on almost a 1/2 an acre of property yet offering miles &amp; miles of beautiful mountain scenery!! Escape from your stressful day in your own backyard away from everything.  Looks are very deceiving...This home is much larger than it appears. The windows and hot water heater are newer (about 3 years each) the septic system will be pumped &amp; serviced soon, a new above ground oil tank has been installed and the removal of the old tank will be taking place in the next few weeks leaving this home with little left to do. A little TLC and this home can really sparkle!! With so many possibilities, this house is truly one home you don't want to pass up...it's worth the look!!</description>
