Among the earliest of the settlers was Thomas Mapes, of Englir^h descent, the ancestor of the many families of the name found in various portions of the country.

He went to Brookhaven in 1655, but returned to Southold in 1657, and died there in 1686. He possessed much land in Southold and one part known as " Mapes' Neck," was owned by his descendants for three generations. He left nine children,-- Thomas, William, Jabez, Jonathan, Abigail (wife of John Terrell), Sarah (wife of William Coleman), Mary (wife of Barnabas Wines), Naomi and Rebecca (wife of Thomas Young, son of Rev.
