Everything about Yorkshire County Province Of New York totally explained

Yorkshire County was an original county of the English Province of New York, established in 1664, soon after English control of the area was established. Like the original Yorkshire in England for which it was named, the county in New York was divided into three ridings: East, West and North. New York's East Riding consisted of modern Suffolk County, its West Riding Staten Island, modern Brooklyn and modern Elmhurst, Queens (also known as Newtown) and its North Riding the rest of modern Queens, Nassau County, Westchester County and the Bronx. On November 1, 1683, when the counties in New York were reorganized, the East Riding was made into Suffolk County, the West Riding Richmond (Staten Island) and Kings (Brooklyn) counties, and the North Riding Queens (including the modern Nassau County) and Westchester (including the modern Bronx) counties.
