Founded in 1683, Suffolk County was named for the county of Suffolk in England, from which its earliest settlers came. It is the easternmost county in New York State and the New York Metropolitan Area. The County occupies two thirds of Long Island, which juts about 120 miles into the Atlantic. It covers roughly a thousand square miles of territory and is eighty-six miles long and twenty-six miles wide at the widest point.
The weather is temperate, clean water abundant, and the soil is good and in fact, Suffolk is the leading agricultural county in the state of New York. That it is still number one in farming despite all of the building developments and urban sprawl is a tribute to the excellent soil, favorable weather conditions, and the farmers of this region.
Over the past millennium there has been a procession of all kinds of people from Indians, explorers, pirates and colonists, to an invading army that maintained control for years. There have also been whalers, railroad men, Nazis, summer people, bootleggers, groupies, commuters, and spacemen. Of course, homeowners and farmer fisherman have always been the mainstay of this County. There is a cosmopolitan mixture of 1,300,000 people of all kinds today and the population is still growing.
