Finally found where I had seen this... Is Jennnings point in Southold ? http://www.shelter-island.org/history.html There were no real roads, but ox-cart tracts ran from the north ferry rowboat service run by the Southold Budd family at Jennings (Stearnís) point and the south ferry connection at its present location. The Tuthills on Ram Island would drag their scow to Dinahís Rock at Hay Beach and row across to Oysterponds, now Orient. The reason I am interested is because there were some Budds in PA who were related who also had a ferry. The"south ferry connection" mentioned above is puzzling. I do find Budd's in Noyac before 1790. This is my brick wall area.
