My family came from Staten Island.  A couple of the familes were "old Staten Island"  My Grandfathers childhood home was taken down for the Verrazano Bridge access road.  Several family members attended Staten Island Academy. But I didn't realize it Todt Hill was the highest natural point on the eastern seaboard.
