"In 1902, a portion of Farmington and Doughty Mills was bought from the Doughty Estate by Victor Humbroke [Humbrecht] and William Oakes of North Jersey and developed as Pleasantville Terrace. Several houses were built there and a pretty little railroad station bearing the name of Pleasantville Terrace above the station door. Five of the original houses are still being used today. The Station house was moved from its first location on the railroad to where it stands now as Burgy's Inn."             ..... Hattie Anderson 1964
