History
The village is named for the brook that once ran along its main road, Wolver Hollow. Although the village is physically lower than the surrounding areas, resident Hope Goddard Iselin opposed the name of Lower Brookville, stating, "I refuse to live in lower anything. If you must call it something, and I suppose you must, call it Upper Brookville." Subsequently, Upper Brookville became its name.
Upper Brookville incorporated as a village in on July 28, 1932, when eight taxpaying residents within its boundaries unanimously voted in favor of incorporation at the July 16 referendum on the matter. It was the last village in Nassau County to incorporate until Atlantic Beach – located in the Town of Hempstead – incorporated in 1962.
