Prior Period Origin
Later Period Changes
(Adam Pukunka, Pipes Neck Lane, Arshamomaque)
The first Corwin house in Hashamomack was originally
a "Saltbox" and can be much older than 1814. Descended from
the first Matthias, James Corwin, a miller at Joseph C. Al-
bertson's Mill, married Polly Appleby, daughter of Mahala
Conklynge and the John Appleby who came to America after
the Revolution with John Paul Jones. This house is on lands
which were inherited from "Longhouse John Conklynge." The
homestead of Mahala and John Appleby was at the end of
Pipes Neck Lane on the site of the present Alfred and Mary
(Corwin) Homan home, part of once widespread, family lands.
This is a Neck rich in earliest local history. The Great
Pine Swamp and the Five Wigwams where much Indian ac-
tivity and Councils took place were there. The Osman Brick-
yard was near by. Pipes (barrels larger than -ere
made on Pipes Neck and were used for transporting whale oil,
rum, sugar, and molasses. The historic Hashamomack school-
house (built of wood), now an empty house, stands at the
south-west corner of Pipes Neck Lane and the Main Road,
having had several movings. Buttermilk Hill a few rods west-
erly on the Main Road, was one of its last sites, given from
Albertson lands. The Hashamomack Burying Ground, Id part ~

(Mrs. Stanley Barsezewski, Wickham Park, Arshamomaque) ra1its
The Albertsons of historic Dutch, New Amsterdam, New roa
Utrecht ancestry, held large Hashamomack land areas and ex,
homes in the 18th and part of the 19th centuries. The "Four- of
score acres" tract granted to John Conklynge of Common in
Lands, 1684, by the inhabitants came eventually into William
Albertson's hands by 1779 and 1798 (J. Wickham Case, South-
old Town Records). It was claimed by Lawyer Albertson
Case, deceased descendant, that William Albertson, son of
William Albertson and Mary Parker, was born in this Hasha-
momack homestead 1752. He married Sarah Conklynge, daugh-
ter of Capt. Joseph Conklynge, 1780. Their son, Joseph C.
Albertson, was born there; William and William C. of follow-
ing generations.
By wills and deeds recorded in Riverhead, searched by
Earle Linton, Historical Society member, Joseph C. Albertson,
son Albert and William C. Albertson later are found with
homes and farms southerly (Conklins Point) and westerly
bordering Mill Creek; with William Albertson, son of Joseph
C., in this homestead under description. The southerly and
r. westerly parcels by deeds of lW7 passed -into the hands of
DeWitt C. Sage, founder of Sage's Brick Yard 1888.
The Albertsons were farm owners, mill owners and prom-
, # inent citizens. Three were Town Supervisors; William, Joseph x"
C. and Albert.
The Wickham family ownership of this homestead and
lands was dated in a deed, August 27, 1868. Albertson family
heirs of.several generations were the grantors of this old
home3tead and farm, described as where William Albertson
(deceased 1818) lived, to Lawver William Wickham, descen-
dant of Col. Joseph Wickham (1048, Wethersfield, Conn., later
i Southold). William Wickham was distinguished as lawyer,
j District Attorney and able public leader. He married Sarah E.
} Mavens, daughter of Col. John Havens of Patchogue and had
chldren, James, William H. and Julia M. The Wickhams lived
in Cutchogue and retained the Hashamomack property for its
