The known origins of our community started in the late 1950's.

From what we could find among the early settlers were Dr. Chandrakant Amin, a psychiatrist working at the local psychiatric hospital, and Mr. Ravi, an IBMer.

In 1957, Mr. Van Bakshi joined the IBM Research Laboratory on Boardman Road in Poughkeepsie, N.Y.

In 1958, Kanu Ashar joined IBM and pursued his Ph.D. degree through IBM's Graduate Work Study Program. Later on, he was known to many in our community as Dr. Ashar, who managed IBM's advanced technological work in East Fishkill. Dr. Ashar and Mr. Bakshi met one another during IBM's lunch time movies and decided to get together socially.

In the following few years, Dr. Hiten Ghosh and Mr. Arvind Patel joined the community. Arvind also received his Ph.D. through the IBM Graduate Work Study program and was named an IBM Fellow in 1986, a major accomplishment.
