About the Borough of Ramsey:
Ramsey is a borough in Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. It is a suburb of New York City, located 26 miles northwest of Midtown Manhattan.
In 1848 the local stop of the newly opened Paterson and Ramapo Railroad was named Ramsey. The cash crop in local agriculture was strawberries, and four to eight railroad cars were loaded each night in season. In 1851, 1 million baskets of strawberries were shipped to New York City.
In the years before the railroad, this section of the county was strictly rural. Narrow dirt roads divided farms ranging from 50 to 500 acres, and consisting of woodland, pastures, orchards and cultivated areas. Old correspondence and records indicate that the average farm devoted from 1 to 5 acres exclusively to the raising of strawberries.
