I'm not sure of the age of "Neighborhood House" in Setauket, NY
(settled mid 17th century by former Charles River, Massachusetts
residents in part, the second oldest standing Anglican church in North
America there and a Presbyterian church first ministered by a Ph.D.
from the first graduating class of Harvard University) once near the
Society for Long Island Antiquities in the a state of New York, but it
seems that many of the house names might have been used differently in
different times. During the American Revolution there, it is reported
"loyalist" houses were known from the thin black line painted around
some part of the upper chimney, affording safety to those of that ilk?
