?0. HISTORICAL AND ARCHITECTURAL IMPORTANCE: house in 1870. (U. S. Census, Mattituck
1870)
A mansion built either as a summer residence or year-round home for a man probably
not a native of the town. Perhaps the first mansi_-)n to be built in this farm
community. The Snedens left Mattit;eek some time in the 1870'x. The ho se was
kno-r-n as the Odell House in 1880 when sold by the Southold savings Bank in that ye,
to Mrs. Thomas Hallock (L.I. Traveler 1/20/1880.) In 1892 was purchased by Jacob
Bro-dm from Miss Carrie Hallock and con-- _
verted to a hotel in 1892. It continued
to hese paying guests until the present
day. A school was kept on the premises in
the 1890's during the winter months. _
