Historic Marker Placed At William Miller House In Miller Place

MILLER PLACE, NY — Brookhaven Town officials gathered earlier this month to recognize the historic marker at the William Miller House.

Supervisor Ed Romaine and Councilwoman Jane Bonner met with members of the Miller Place-Mt. Sinai Historical Society, which has asked the sign recognize the district, instead of a single structure.

The district is a national historic district containing 27 contributing buildings that feature rural architecture from the mid-18th through the late 19th century, according to town officials. It was added to the National Register of HistoricPlaces in 1976 and was the first national historic district in Brookhaven.

The marker was paid for using a $1,550 grant from the William G. Pomeroy Foundation.
