[J. Thomas Scharf (1886)] Mr. Underbill's ancestors were members of the Society of Friends, as were many of the early families of Westchester County. For many years the study of medicine has interested him and he has acquired an extensive knowledge of that profession and of some other branches of science. A few years ago he re-ceived from Amherst College an honorary degree of Master of Arts. His present residence was completed in 1881. A part was built in 1828. It is situated a short distance west of the New York City and Northern Railroad, on the old road to Croton. The farm which sur-I rounds it is well known as one of the best cultivated in the town, if not in the county, and is well stocked with horses and cattle of the finest grades. The ancient homestead of the family, and the place where his grandfather, Isaac Underbill, resided during the Revolution, is still standing on the west side of the road from Crompond to Fine's Bridge, anil one mile south of Yorktown Station. It has an historic interest as the place where Major John Andre and Joshua Hett Smith stopped for breakfast on the morning of the 23d of September. 1780. It was here that they separated, Smith to return to his home in Haverstraw, by way of King's Ferry, and Andre to continue his journey to Fine's Bridge and thence to the old Albany Post road, where he was captured, and when they met again it was under very different circumstances.
