The Hamlet People DatabaseIn this Volume of the Brookhaven/South Haven web site I develop genealogies of the families of Brookhaven (Fire Place) and South Haven hamlets, in the Town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County (Long Island), New York State, U.S.A. As noted in the previous link, the two hamlets of Brookhaven and South Haven have been closely interlinked since earliest colonial times, and the names Brookhaven (or Fire Place or Brook Haven) and South Haven has been applied to geographic neighborhoods in both hamlets at various times. The people recorded in this Volume were not
necessarily residents in one of the two hamlets. However, all have a "family" connection to the
Hamlets through one or more ancestors or descendants Those who are believed to have resided in the hamlets are identified by a ^ following their name. Ancestors of Hamlet People residents are identified by a > following their name, descendants by a <. Note, however, that these designations are imperfect; documentation of residency is stronger in some cases than in others. People identified with a † following their name were identified as members of the South Haven Presbyterian Church, but were not identified as being residents of the Hamlets. In Colonial times (and even today), the Parish itself extended well to the east and west of the Fire Place and South Haven Hamlets. This material is always evolving and recorded in a master genealogical database maintained off-the-web. I then periodically update these web pages—The Hamlet People Database.. I am always open to additions and corrections. |
SummaryAs of 3 September 2012, the Hamlet People database contains: 368 trees (each "tree" is a collection of interlinked individuals who are related either by birth or marriage), and 16321 individuals.
