SAG HARBOR HISTORY ROOM
Hours:
Wednesday 10:00-5:00 (By appointment)
Thursday 10:00-5:00 (Open to public)
Phone:
516-725-0049
The Sag Harbor History Room is housed on the third floor of the
John Jermain Memorial Library on Main Street in the Village of
Sag Harbor. It holds an extensive collection of materials related
to the history of the people and communities of the Sag Harbor
area. The room and its holdings are available to users on
Wednesdays, by appointment, and on Thursdays. Staff is available
to assist users during the hours the History Room is open.
The Sag Harbor History Room is a multicultural treasure trove!
The Village of Sag Harbor is on the National Register of Historic
Places. Part of the Historic District is an early
African-American community named Eastville, which is present on
maps dating to 1838. Many of these residents were involved with
the whaling trade as well as other mercantile and domestic
trades. Theirs is a long history that continues in a vibrant
community today, which may be researched in the historical
collection of the John Jermain Memorial Library.
The Native American presence on eastern Long Island has great
time depth. Before the English and Dutch settlers arrived, there
were Native American settlements here. Wegwagonock was the
Algonquian name for the village near what is now Sag Harbor.
William Wallace Tooker studied the Algonquian language and
culture at the turn of the 20th century. His research library is
housed in the Sag Harbor History Room. There are books on Native
American languages, customs and material culture. Files are kept
on many aspects of Sag Harbor's history, including local Native
Americans.
The Village of Sag Harbor grew up on the wealth of the whaling
trade, which was taught to the first colonists by the Native
Americans. The Sag Harbor History Room has a number of documents
related to the whaling trade, and information about the ship
owners, captains, crews and places they voyaged to. Many people
from foreign ports of call came to Sag Harbor on these ships,
from as far away as Hawaii! Sag Harbor was one of the first ports
of entry in the United States, commissioned by George Washington.
The Village has a long and interesting history!
There were early English settlers in the village. They came here
from the villages of Southampton and East Hampton where they had
settled first. There were also Dutch, French, Irish, Polish and
Italian settlers; to name just a few of the countries represented
in the region. Sag Harbor became the port for shipping out farm
produce and light industrial merchandise for the nearby farming
communities. With the growth of manufacturing in the last quarter
of the 19th century, and the building of a fine watchcase factory
here, many silversmiths and engravers of Jewish descent
immigrated here as skilled labor. There are photographs of people
and buildings in the History Room that give insight to village
life from the late 1800's on.
Genealogies of these early families (as well as families that
arrived later) may be researched in the Sag Harbor History Room.
Local history books and books of Town Records can be checked for
family names. Newspapers dating continuously back to 1822 are
available here, as well as a few dating to the 1790's and early
1800's. Informative obituaries can be accessed. Lists of births,
deaths and marriages are available for the Village. Maps from the
middle of the 19th century with homeowner's names can be
consulted, along with census data. If you are interested in
American history, local history, whaling and maritime trades, our
multicultural heritage, or if you are tracing your family's
roots, it's worth a visit to the Sag Harbor History Room!
