As many older records give Long Island, New York as the location of an event, this page is created though there was never a municipality by the name of Long Island. The island was one of the first areas populated and many of the old names have been changed making it difficult to match old locations with current areas.

The following web page delineating the old and new village/hamlet names can be helpful: http://longislandgenealogy.com/TownNames.html. This site has a map circa 1900 which helps one see the localities as they were named at that time.
