Notes - The Oldest Home in Patchogue- Patchogue, L.I., September 28- Long Island abounds in curious old buildings, one of the most interesting of which is at Patchogue, and is said to be the oldest building intact in this vicinity. This building is known as the Case homestead, and stands on the north side of East Main Street, midway between Evergreen and Grove avenues. Its appearance at once betokens age, its long, exended frontage toward the street and the eastern extension "series" telling its own story of antiquity. The immediate surroundings of the old house show also show age, a number of tall, massive black walnut trees abutting on the sidewalk, while the bunches of shrubbery, as originally set out according to the old-fashioned idea of placing the bush to shade the front porch and front window from the heat of the southern sun in midday, speak of bygone days. In line with the old idea, also, is the placing of the cellar entrance at the southern exposure of the house, in this instance, the front of the building. The exact age of the house is not known, though it is at least one hundred years old. The original owner, as far as the present occupants now know, was David Case, who came from Cutchogue. The house was first occupied by his son, David Wickham Case, whose middle name at once associates the family with the famous Wickham family of the Cutchogue section. The occupancy of David Wickham Case gives the house its record, and this includes the steady growth of two of Patchogue's thriving institutions, namely its lodge of Odd Fellows and the Congregational Church Society.
