The
name "Elm Branch" occurs on old land records
and seems very well suited to a stream
that flows along Elmwood Road in Lewisboro.
Its source is just south of West Lane,
1/2 mile west of the source of the West
Branch. A tributary reaches further west,
to the watershed's westernmost pond, which
lies at the intersection of Kitchawan
Road and Route 123.
The
Town of Lewisboro obtained one of the
old farms along Elmwood Road through a
generous donation by its former owner,
Alice Lane Poor. The town uses the splendid
farmhouse to hold several municipal offices
and some of the fields for sports.
