Excerpt: ... in other places, served to swell the volume of outgoing commodities for which the goods and merchandize of the cities and the products of labor or art were exchanged. In 1794 the Sag Harbor Custom House had on its books 472 tons of registered and 473 tons of enrolled and licensed vessels; in 1800 it had 805 of the former and 1,449 ofthe latter; in 1805, 1,916 and 2,228; in 1810, 1,185 and 3,223; in 1815, 808 and 2,719 (this decline being caused by the war); in 1820, 2,263 and 3,416--a total for the last named year of 5,679 tons From that time on it showed a steady and rapid advance until the California exodus, the great fire, and other causes that co-operated to depress the whale fishery, began to cut down its large proportions. In the Great South Bay, that remarkable and noble body of water which forms the chief natural feature of t-he southern border of the county for its greater length, and at the same time is the main source of subsistence for the people inhabiting its norfhern shores, the early settlers quickly began to navigate its shallow waters in canoes, flat-bottomed boats and scows, and in later years small sloops and schooners of light draftfwere built to ply from place to place or, by way of the inlets from the outer ocean, to make trips to New York and other ports. As early as 1760 to '7o a few sloops traded through the Bay, carrying wood and produce. This trade, feeble as it had been, was closed by the war of the Revolution. It revived with renewed vigor and by 1785 there were 12 sloops and pirogues (or canoes) trading on the East Bay. By 1800 the number had increased to 30, among them being the sloop Woodcock built and owned by Hon. John Smith, at that time United States senator, which vessel was burned off Fire...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Address Delivered Before the Suffolk County Historical Society: Oct 1st, 1889 The settlements of Plymouth, Salem, Boston and those adjacent thereto would naturally be fixed by the voyagers on or near the ocean they had crossed and a harbor where supplies could be brought from the country they had left. There after, in the selection of sites at Hartford, Windsor, Wethersfield, Say brook, New Haven, Gardiner's Island, Southold, Southampton, East-Hampton, other elements complicated the problem. The interior was a wilderness, the home of the savage and the wild beast. The progress of the traveler was slow, dangerous and the road uncertain and hard to keep. The ocean, bay and river were more easily crossed. Colonies located thereon were more easily supplied, visited, succored and defended. In the wilderness, man to man, the hostile Indian might equal the hostile Englishman. On the ocean, bay or river one small vessel of the latter could beat the canoes of a continent. Not by chance or accident, or without careful thought were the early settlements in this country so located that the settlers could be sustained, supplied, visited, succored, defended. Thus fixed, the forest, the stream, the harbor contributed game and fowl and fish to sustain the pioneer. Thus established, he could export surplus products derived from the waters, the air or the earth. Lion Gardiner, from Saybrook Fort looking over the waters of the Sound, saw with the eye of a soldier, a financier and practical business man the advantageous position of the beautiful isle that to this day bears his name.
