History
The name "Tuckahoe," meaning “it is globular," was a general term used by the Native Americans of the region when describing various bulbous roots which were used as food.
Throughout the 1700s and 1800s, Tuckahoe was a rural, minor community that was part of the larger town of Eastchester. The land in the Tuckahoe area was farmed by tenants of Philipsburg Manor.
