Crossroads of Rockland History: The Ramapo Pass

11/17/2025


The November episode of "Crossroads of Rockland History" starts streaming on Monday, November 17, at 10 am, on all major podcast platforms and here on the HSRC website.


Tune in to the next Crossroads of Rockland History, when we will revisit an earlier episode featuring Rockland County Historian Craig Long during which we discussed the importance of the Ramapo Pass in the American Revolution.


In addition, host Clare Sheridan will share a summary of this important piece of New York State Revolutionary War History written by the former Rockland County Historian, the late Thomas F. X. Casey. Casey’s summary was part of his remarks at the 225th anniversary of the Camp Ramapough Entrenchments in Hillburn in 2001.


This episode is sponsored by the Town of Ramapo. We are grateful for their support of the Historical Society of Rockland County and the "Crossroads of Rockland History" podcast.
