Southold Connections: Historical and Biographical Sketches of Northeastern Long Island by Judy Jacobson

This original Clearfield publication is an examination of the early families and history of the North Fork of Long Island, New York, and its neighboring islands from the earliest settlement through the Revolutionary War. Following an introductory chapter on the founding of Southold, Mrs. Jacobson has compiled genealogies on the following families who settled in Southold during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries: Brockett, Browne, Budd, Conkling, Folger, Gardiner, Hallock, Horton, Landon, Moore, Paine/Payne, Sylvester, Tuttle/Tuthill, Underhill, Vail, Warren, and Youngs. Genealogists will want to study the appendix to the volume, which consists of excerpts from deeds, wills and other legal documents, tombstone inscriptions, census records, and other source records pertaining to colonial Southold. The work concludes with a bibliography and a surname index.
