Do you know of Forham Heights ???

This page is an orphan - a placeholder until we can discover more about Forham Heights. When we encounter a name that is new to us, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope that we'll discover more information in the future. Such is the case with Forham Heights.<1>

We found mention of Forham Heights as a community (see Mentions and References below), but haven't been able to determine its location - other than being located somewhere in New York County, New York.
