Sub-series 2: Outside Brooklyn, 1883-1915, inclusive

Language of Materials

English.

Extent

14.25 Linear Feet

Extent

9.25 in 3 manuscript boxes, 3 flat boxes, and 1 oversized shelf.

Scope and Contents

The subseries consists of property records (including deeds, title searches, and maps) and records documenting city efforts to acquire land outside of Brooklyn. The files date from 1883 to 1915.

The following areas are represented in the subseries: Flushing, Jamaica, Long Island City, and Newtown (modern Queens County); Hempstead and Oyster Bay (modern Nassau County), Smithtown (part of modern Suffolk County), Richmond (modern Staten Island), and Manhattan.

The majority of the records relate to Brooklyn's water supply, especially in the Towns of Jamaica and Hempstead (specifically Freeport, Merrick, Pine Stream, Rockville Centre, Valley Stream, and Wantagh).

Of particular note is a record documenting the establishment of the border between Queens County and Nassau County in 1898-1899.

Arrangement note

The subseries is arranged alphabetically by location to assist researchers as the property records were found unorganized. Locations are derived directly from the documents and reflect 19th century boundaries.

Folder titles were derived from the documents. The names of property owners have been included in the folder title or notes field when known.

Please see the Processing Information note for additional general information regarding the arrangement of the series in this collection.
