==Early life==
In 1852, John Charles Olmsted was born in Geneva, Switzerland to John Olmsted and Mary Cleveland Perkins Olmsted. His father John, had contracted tuberculosis, and prescriptions of the day were fresh air and exercise. The John Olmsted family returned to the United States to reside at Tosomock Farm on Staten Island.〔Witold Rybczynski (1999).
