Isaac
Baker, a railroad magnate and politician, inherited the family
property, which was eventually sold to the State of New York. It became
the Great
Meadow prison, and both of his sons served as officials of the
New York prison system. (Isaac
V. Baker, Jr. was also a politician.) The family home was used
as the warden's residence until the 1970s and is now used for office space.
