Brentwood Historical Society

The Brentwood Historical Society is a voluntary, dues paying association of individuals having a common interest in the history of Brentwood, NY, and its predecessor community, the City of Modern Times. It is a 501(c)(3) organization, dedicated to the preservation and marking of those sites and structures which have inherent historical value or which are associatively tied to the history and development of the community.

The society seeks to promote an awareness and appreciation of the history of the community and of the contributions made by all those who have settled there and made it their home. The current focus is on the preservation and restoration of the original octagonal, one room school house which was built in 1857 and remained in use until 1907.
