Saint Josephs
Founded in 1886 by the Sisters of St. Dominc. Saint Josephs was established on property purchased from the estate of millionaire Thomas Hunt Talmadge. Through vision and sacrifice, the Sisters developed a community that included a convent, chapel, school, guest house, sanitarium, boys and girls camps, post office and a working farm. For forty years the estate house served as the summer home of Cardinal Hayes.
Marker is on Lake Joseph Drive 0.7 miles from New York Route 42.
