1933 The Ratto Farms Left Bay Farm Island - http://www.rattobros.com/tribute_video/ray_tribute_wmv.html


Additional research on the topic produced the Ratto Family Farm website with an awesome historical video clip about the family's farming history on Bay Farm Island dating back to his Grandfather Giovanni's arrival from Italy in 1798 website.

The video provided another piece of helpful information stating that in 1933 The Ratto Farms left Bay Farm Island.

Now the task is to locate information about who purchased the Ratto Family Farm land and when the housing developments of current day Harbor Bay Island began.

The video can be accessed through this link:
