Arrochar Northeastern Staten Island once inhabited by Leni Lanape Indians. Its name is derived from an estate built in 1840 by W.W. MacFarland who emigrated from Arrochar, Scotland. His house is now the oldest building on the Saint Joseph Hill Academy grounds. The above came from an interesting web site on Staten Island History. http://www.earthcom.net/~charliet/sihist.html
