(Excerpt from Wikipedia)
Oyster Bay is the name of a hamlet and census-designated place on the North Shore of Long Island in
Nassau County in the state of New York, USA. The hamlet is also the site of a station on the Long Island Rail
Road and the eastern termination point of that branch of the railroad. The community is within the Town of
Oyster Bay, a town which contains 18 villages and 18 hamlets.
Oyster Bay was discovered by the Dutch, and was the boundary between the Dutch New Amsterdam colony
and the English New England Colonies. The English, under Peter Wright, first settled in the area in 1653. The
boundary between the Dutch and English was somewhat fluid which led each group having their own main
Street.
During the Revolutionary War, Raynham Hall was owned by the patriot Townsend family. It was here, the
Major Andre was billeted and Bennedict Arnold's plot to turn over West Point to the British was uncovered.
The oysters that give the bay its name are now the only source of traditionally farmed oysters from Long
Island, providing up to 90% of all the oysters harvested in New York State.
Oyster Bay is known for the residence and summer White House of Theodore Roosevelt, Sagamore Hill.
(from Newsday)
It was Dutch explorer Adrian Block who named Oyster Bay in 1615 for its abundance of shellfish. The
well-protected, productive bay provided food for the Matinecock Indians and then became a magnet for
traders, fishermen, shipbuilders and sailors. But it was a president who made Oyster Bay famous.
Theodore Roosevelt, who built Sagamore Hill in Cove Neck in 1885, was part of the flock of influential city
people who came to Oyster Bay in those years. As New York City police commissioner from 1895 to 1897, he
commuted to Manhattan from the Oyster Bay train station.
