The land donated for the station came from Julius Braunsdorf, a local entrepreneur, who won a lawsuit against the Singer Corporation. Braunsdorf opened Central Avenue, the local post office, and the railroad station. Known as Muddy Brook, Braunsdorf suggested the hamlet be renamed for the pearls in the local river.Template:Sfn Braunsdorf built originally two facilities at Pearl River, but some time after 1880, these were merged into one structure.Template:Sfn
