The mountain people brought baskets, beer barrel hoops, bowls, chairs, ladles and spoons they made from the wood and reeds found in the mountain to Laden's store to sell or take to New York City to be sold. In 1836, Mr. Leyden sold his store to John J. Secor, but he still took his woodenware to New York City to sell. The area, prior to its naming, was settled by Quaker families.
