History

Devondale was incorporated sometime in 1958 and apparently named for a local farm.

Graymoor was also named for a local farm, itself named for the monastery of the Society of the Atonement in Garrison, New York. Merged with the nearby subdivision of Woodstock, it was formally incorporated by the state assembly on November 17, 1959.

Graymoor and Devondale merged on November 6, 1985, and were reïncorporated together on November 23, 1987. This allowed them (in 1992) to reach 4th-class status and control the zoning of properties around the Westport Rd.–Herr Ln. intersection.
