Jeanne ****************************************************************************************************** Lauretta is my sister and she was trying to help me find information on an Old Farm House that was located off Lakeville Road, New Hyde Park before WW II . I believe a family by the name of Wicks occupied a lovely newer home on Lakeville Road, with a large goldfish pond in the front but the Old house remained for quite awhile in back and was used for storage until it burnt down. As I recall the farm was known as a potato farm. I believe the family had at least two daughters that attended school in Great Neck. Someone told me once quite awhile ago that the Old Wicks Farm House had a very interesting history which I would like to find out about.

    1. [NYNAS ] Locust Grove, Long Island cemetery?
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/lRB.2ACE/425.1 Message Board Post: On 8/31/02 (7:31:42 PM EDT), in an eMail Gatewayed from the Nassau County Board to the Nassau County List ([email protected]), Paul ([email protected]) asked, "does anybody know where Locust Grove, Long Island is located? I believe it's a cemetery. A certain James N. Thomas is said to be burried there in grave # 3224. James N. Thomas lived in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and died Sep 1, 1867." Prior to 1990, Locust Grove was a hamlet in the central part of the Town of Oyster Bay, Nassau County. There was no "Locust Grove, NY" post office, and thus no place in the Hamlet of Locust Grove had a "Locust Grove, NY" mailing address. The majority of places in the Hamlet of Locust Grove had a "Syosset, NY" mailing address, while some places in the Hamlet of Locust Grove had a "Jericho, NY" mailing address. In 1990, the Hamlet of Locust Grove was absorbed into the Hamlet of Syosset and now forms all that part of the Hamlet of Syosset south of the Jericho Turnpike. Now, turning to the issue of the cemetery: A check of the GenExchange Cemetery Listings for Nassau County shows: http://www.genexchange.org/cemlist.cfm?letter=l&State=ny&County=nassau Locust Cemetery, Muttontown Address: West side of Rt. 106 (Jericho-Oyster Bay Rd.) opposite Frances Dr., Muttontown, NY Other Information: ''Locust Cemetery, 1816' appears on the gate of this well-fenced and neatly maintained cemetery. Reference to the old chronicles show that it started out as a family burying ground on the farm founded by Jorus Duryea, presumably about the time of his marriage in 1772. It has remained virtually a family cemetery, most of those buried in it being related to each other.' - Herbert Hale, Town Historian, 1961 Also sometimes referred to as the Duryea Burying Ground. When Muttontown incorporated and became a village (municipal corporation) in 1931 it took some of its land from what may have been then a slightly larger Hamlet of Locust Grove. The Village of Muttontown, as did the Hamlet of Locust Grove, did not and does not have a same-named post office, and thus no place in the Village of Muttontown has a "Muttontown, NY" mailing address. Depending where a place in the Village of Muttontown is located, that place can have either: a "Jericho, NY", a "Syosset, NY", a "Glen Head, NY", an "East Norwich, NY" or an "Oyster Bay, NY" mailing address. I hope this information is useful or, at least, interesting. L'Shannah Tova & Happy 5763, Walter Greenspan
