Notes for this person

In 1903, a New York City doctor named Rudolph H.E. Gudewill bought landin Greenwood Lake and built a castle for his wife, Fanny. The final work was actually a series of buildings. There are two castles on opposite sides of a lagoon. One building is a large mansion; the other is a guest house. Both are made from thin slate tiles stacked in mortar. The main building has a series of medieval rooftop battlements and a tower."We hear that he had it fashioned after his father's castle in Germany," says Gen Winstanley, a longtime Greenwood Lake resident. "He had artisans brought here from Europe specifically for the project." In 1946,Dr. Gudewill died and, after years of probate troubles, the property was sold to John Tiedemann – a resident of Jersey City, N.J. – for $15,000. That was 1952. children acc. census 1930 Orange, New York
