    The Long Island Native & Black History UPDATE Volume 1, Number 1 July 22 – 29, 2006 [Reprint] Jul 25, 2006 On NY1 Now: News All Morn (http://www.ny1.com/ny1/OnTheAir/program_guide.jsp) Memorial To Be Built At African, Native American Burial Ground In Queens By Roger Clark A Queens’s playground is being transformed, as the city pays homage to the ancestors of both African and Native Americans. NY1's Roger Clark has more in the following report. Across the street from the Flushing cemetery is the final resting place for 1,000 people. But there are no headstones or landscaping - it's a playground built over a graveyard in the 1930's by the city. “It was inconceivable that you would make a playground out of a cemetery,” says activist Mandingo Tshaka of Bayside. “I’ve never heard of such a thing.” Beneath the asphalt is the burial place of mostly African and Native Americans buried in a potter's field from the 19th century. Now, a 15-year campaign to make the site a memorial park by Tshaka, who has ancestors buried in the field, is becoming a reality. “We're going to have lots of planting, benches, pathways, a new playground, [and] I think it’s going to be a wonderful amenity for the neighborhood," says Angelyn Chandler of the Parks Department. The 3.5-acre site will be surrounded by iron fencing, and there will also be a memorial to those buried there. Getting to this point wasn't easy because some residents weren't happy about losing a playground.

  • LIHS Journal of Long Island History Inventory
    Contents of Brooklyn Historical Society's Journals of Long Island History Introduction From 1939-1942, 1961-1969, and 1973-1982, the Brooklyn Historical Society (known then as the Long Island Historical Society) published a periodic journal, called the Long Island Historical Society Quarterly in 1939-42 and, in the later years, The Journal of Long Island History . The journals include articles on historical topics concerning Kings, Queens, Nassau, and Suffolk counties. Many of the articles, especially in the 1939- 1942 volumes, include full or partial transcriptions of account books, correspondence, deeds, tombstone inscriptions, and other manuscripts from the BHS collection and elsewhere. Following is an inventory of the journals' contents, compiled by BHS library staff in 2010. The content descriptions are generally as found in the tables of contents, though entries for BHS publication lists, contributor biographies, and other such front and back matter were not recorded in this inventory. Indexes for the 1939-1941 quarterlies are found in issue number 4 of each year. In 1961, the new journal began again with Volume 1; an index for these volumes 1- 14 are found in Volume 15 of 1978. For articles with core content not made clear by the article title itself, keywords were added by the inventory compiler. These keywords are [bracketed]. Articles that are comprised entirely or substantially of transcribed (or translated) documents are noted with the keyword "transcription." The modern name of a neighborhood, town, or other recognizable reference point is often used as a keyword for articles that refer to names perhaps no longer used or recognized.

Metcalf, Jr., Town of Huntington, New York African American Historic Designation Council Abstract: Extensiv e research relating to the Jupiter Hammon family suggests a kinship history that plots their journey from West Africa into bondage within the plantation sy stem of the West Indies and North America and their journey into free society in the Town of Huntington, NY, through a combination of mutual support, self-sufficiency , and notable resilience.

Born in 1711, he published his first poem in 1760 and died about 1805, leaving an important body of poetry and prose. He lived most of his life on a large northern plantation, the Manor of Queens Village, a principal holding of the Lloyd Family.[1] He was owned by a succession of Lloyd family members who facilitated his education and the publication of his work.

    THE N A S S A U C O U N T Y H I S T O R I C A L J O U R N A L A Quarterly Devoted To Nassau County Life And Letters Cumulative Index 193 7 - 195 7 VOL. XIX SPRING, 1958 No. 2 (Part 2) Compiled by Edward J. Smits THE NASSAU COUNTY HISTORICAL SOCIETY FOREWORD This Cumulative Index, 1937-1957 to the Nassau County Historical Journal, compiled by Edward J. Smits in 1958, has been converted into electronic form in 2014. Nassau County Historical Society (NCHS) Trustee David R. Doucette scanned and converted the text from the original printed edition. We omitted from that version the inside front cover (listing 1958 NCHS officers, trustees, meeting dates, and membership dues) and substituted this Foreword. Also omitted was information about the Journal, which was on the inside of the original back cover; it is replaced here at the end with current information about the NCHS and the Journal. Otherwise editing was minimal; insertions in the electronic version are indicated by brackets [thus]. Edward J. Smits compiled this Index when he was Assistant Curator for the NCHS. He has been a trustee since 1963 and is currently a Vice President of the Society. He was a curator from 1955 to 1971 and Director of the Nassau County Division of Museum Services from 1971 to 1992. Since 1983, he has served pro bono as Nassau County Historian. He was Planning Coordinator of the Museums at Mitchel Planning Group, from 1994 to 2000, and Chief Executive Officer, Museums at Mitchel/Cradle of Aviation, from 2001 to 2004.

  • The Dr. Daniel Whitehead Kissam House (1795) 424 Park Avenue, Huntington
    The Dr. Daniel Whitehead Kissam House (1795) 424 Park Avenue, Huntington Dr. Daniel Whitehead Kissam came to Huntington from Glen Cove in 1795 to practice medicine. Huntington, a town of 4,000 inhabitants, had recently lost its two doctors – the Reverend Dr. Zophar Platt died in 1792 and Dr. James Sandford died in 1794. He purchased a new house across from the Village Green in the heart of town. The Kissam House is the second house on this property. In 1661, John Wescott built a house here and sold it to Thomas Powell in 1663. Powell, a Quaker, left Huntington in 1695 because he did not want to pay taxes to support the official church. The house passed through several different owners and may have been used to quarter British troops during the revolution. That house may have been burnt down by the British when they left Huntington in 1783. Timothy Jarvis, a housewright, acquired the property and built the present house. Because of its fine detailing, it is believed that he built it specifically for Dr. Kissam. Dr. Kissam had been apprenticed in New York City for his medical training and began his practice in Glen Cove in 1787. That same year he married Elizabeth Tredwell, whose cousin the Reverend Samuel Seabury became the first Episcopal Bishop of the United States. Dr. Kissam, his wife and four children (ages 1 to 7) moved into what is known as a half house because there are rooms on only on side of the hall. The house features elegant wood moldings, especially in the front upstairs chamber.
