Strongs Neck Long Island

Today we are going to discover a charming peninsula of land located upon the North section of Setauket, Strongs Neck Long Island. This historic section of Setauket, alive with stories, was originally referred to as “Little Neck”. It was purchased by the Strong Family back in the 1700s and later became known as “Strongs Neck.”

The History of Strongs Neck

Anyone watch the series “TURN”? Well, you soon realize just how much history is in the Setauket (Strongs Neck) area. Most notable would be the Culpur Spy Ring which gathered intelligence for George Washington’s Army during the Revolutionary war. While roaming about town, you will be reminded of the Strong Family & Anna Strong who uniquely communicated with coded messages using a clothesline.

Abraham Woodhull (Loyalist TURN Spy) was a key player in the Ring, transmitting British movements. Other familiar names such as Caleb Brewster & Robert Townsend are scattered about the Setauket area.
