Notes:

"Zachariah settled at Oak Island on the Smith Patent, east of Yaphank, and north of where now is the L.I.R.R. on the road to site of Camp Upton. Later he moved into the Glover house further south on the same property, just east of Carman's Mill, on the east side of Carman River, north of the railroad at South Haven. Just south of the railroad on the east side of the river was Zach's Landing, named after this Zachariah Hawkins, probably because it was from here that he shipped to New York City the cord wood that he cut nearby, there being an inlet at this time from the ocean to the bay just west of Smith's Point. It was also probably near this landing in the woody swamp by the river that Zachariah hid the horses and cattle of General John Smith during the American Revolution to prevent their capture by the British. Zachariah had been placed in charge of the General's extensive property at Smith's Point at St. George's Manor or Tangier. In 1796 he was living again at Oak Island according to the will of William Smith of the Manor of St. George at Smith's Point. In addition to furthering the efforts of General Smith during the Revolution, Zachariah as a patriot signed the Association Papers June 8, 1775, and again in May, 1776. He died about 1800 on the Smith property at South Haven and letters of administration of his estate were granted May 5, 1800, to his son Nathaniel and his grandson Zachariah Hawkins."

Setauket was originally founded as Ashford "... probably begun in the spring of 1655, although it may have been earlier since its origin is enveloped in obsurity."

"The earliest reference to him ... Dec. 8, 1663 .... From this fact he must have been living in Ashford or Setauket for some time but his name does not appear on the earliest lists of inhabitants."

"His home was opposite the intersection of what are now called Christian and Bay Avenues, a grove of trees marking the spot."
