At a glance: Floral Park Historical Society The Floral Park Historical Society (FPHS), founded in 1999, is dedicated to collecting and preserving memorabilia, documents, artifacts, photos and oral histories that capture the everyday life as well as the milestones of the Floral Park community. The village’s founder and first president of the Inc. Village of Floral Park (1908), John Lewis Childs, established very successful seed and publishing businesses. Childs also served as a New York State Senator, an author world renowned flora-culturalist, botanist, ornithologist and naturalist. By maintaining an archives and museum at 103 South Tyson Avenue in Floral Park and offering museum tours and public education programs, the FPHS hopes current and future residents will take pride in the village as they become part of its collective history by living, working, raising families and enjoying the fruits of the American Dream right in Floral Park.
