Also, do you have a complete name as the NYS Banking Deprtment has 3 banks that were originally named Bank of Long Island. The most likely candidate was the one founded in 1902 by the merger of: Bank of Jamaica Flushing Bank Far Rockaway Bank First National Bank of Corona By the time it was acquired by the Bank of the Manhattan Company in 1920 it had 13 brances, all in Queens; but, I could find no hard evidence that one of those branches was in Woodhaven. What are you actually trying to ascertain? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
