Pearl River was originally called "Muddy Flatts." In the early 1870s, the town was divided in five different parts; Naurashaun, Middletown, Sickletown, Pascack and Muddy Brook. According to historians, a resident of the town by the name of Dr. Ves Bogert found pearls in mussels on a creek running through the town, thus naming the town Pearl River.
Pearl River was a deserted area purchased by Julius E. Braunsdorf in 1872. It is said that Branusdorf was the "Father of Pearl River" and designed it to be a company town.
1872 - The Aetna Sewing Machine Company - the largest factory in Pearl River and ceded land to the railroad company so workers from New York City could get to his factory.
1873 - Two brick train stations (Passenger/Freight) that are still in use today.
