INTRODUCTION In spite of the utilitarian tendencies of the present age, it is fortunately no longer necessary to argue in behalf of sport; even the busiest of busy Americans have at last learned the neces- sity for a certain amount of relaxation and rec- reation, and that the best way to these lies in the pursuit of some form of outdoor sport. While each has its stanch adherents, who pro- claim its superiority to all others, the sport of yachting can perhaps show as much to its credit as any. As a means to perfect physical development, one great point in all sports, it has the advantage of being followed outdoors in the bracing atmos- phere of the sea; and while it involves severe physical labor and at times actual hardships, it fits its devotees to withstand and enjoy both. In the matter of competition, the salt and savor of all sport, yachting opens a wide and varied field.

  • Civil War Records: Town of Oyster Bay
    Civil War Records: Town of Oyster Bay Private Jeremiah K. Davis of Locust Valley, one of 124 men from the Town of Oyster Bay who enlisted into the Harris Light Cavalry. See inside for a profile of the Harris Light Cavalry. ¡ ¢ £ © ¡ § £ ¡ ¢ £ ¤ ¥ ¦ § ¨ A Message from Town Clerk STEVEN L. LABRIOLA Dear Genealogy Enthusiast, The American Civil War (1861-65) was a defining event in our country’s history. The entire future of the United States rested on its outcome. Its impact was felt in every community in every state, including the Town of Oyster Bay. Town Supervisor George S. Downing’s son, Daniel, was killed at Aldie, Virginia. It was the first time in our nation’s history that conscription, or draft, of men into the military was employed. Of the Town’s total population of around 8,000, 600 men saw active duty. This guide is an important tool for genealogists searching for male ancestors who lived in Oyster Bay during the Civil War. It contains both the 1862 and 1864 enrollment lists. The enrollment includes the name, age and occupation of all men between the ages of 18 and 45.
