Hallock State Park Preserve
Hallockville Museum Farm and Hallock State Park Preserve
will host Historian Richard Wines to discuss his recently released book, "A
Farm Family on Long Island's North Fork". Wines traces the history of the North Fork agricultural
community through the story of the Hallock Family. For well over two centuries,
community members were almost all descendants of the same group of
seventeenth-century Puritan founders. Yet, despite their shared heritage and
complex interrelationships, cultural wars raged. Family members and the community
divided bitterly on issues, ranging from whether to allow a melodeon into the
church to supporting abolitionism. Wines' deep dive into one community's
history uncovers stories about slavery, racism, and prejudice that many have
chosen to forget, as well as stories of compassion or human tragedy we want to
remember.
The program is free, but advanced
registration is required.
