Long Island's history began with indigenous Lenape inhabitants before European colonization by both the Dutch in the west and English in the east in the mid-1600s, leading to a period of land disputes and cultural exchange. Key events include the English takeover of New Netherland in 1664, establishing the Province of New York, and the pivotal Battle of Long Island during the American Revolution.

Lloyd Neck Harbor, part of Lloyd Harbor, NY, traces its history to 1654 when the Matinecock Native Americans sold 3,000 acres, called Caumsett, to English settlers. In 1676, James Lloyd acquired the land, and his son Henry developed it as a manor. The area saw British fortifications during the Revolutionary War. In the 1900s, it became part of the Long Island Gold Coast, with wealthy families building estates. Incorporated as Lloyd Harbor in 1926, many estates are now parks or refuges.[](https:/
