I was recently contacted by an alter yid who claimed that Rav Steiner lived in Mount Vernon, NY where he was known as the “Mount Vernon Rav”. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Staten Island is a wee bit off the beaten path from Mount Vernon (Westchester) especially back in 1916, how did he end up at the Baron Hirsh Cemetery?
