This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/WUB.2ACI/1335 Message Board Post: There is reference in land deeds that describe my ancestors meadow land being bordered by the "South Bay". This would have been in Hempstead Town. Does anyone know specifically what the people of Hempstead would have refered to as the South Bay, as it relates to current Nassau Co. water bodies? Thanks, Janet
