Log Excerpt: "Mom came over around 9:00 and we drove to the Fire Island National Seashore unit in Mastic Beach for the William Floyd Estate, the home of the signer of the Declaration of Independence. We walked around the grounds a little, seeing the many outbuildings on the property including the barns and ice cellar. Built by William’s father Nicholl, the house was expanded over the many decades, and remained in the family until given to the NPS in the 70’s. We took a very good tour of over an hour, going through the many rooms, left as they were when the NPS took over. Many of the rooms changed purpose over the years, and we visited bedrooms, parlors, kitchens, etc."

Log Excerpt: "From there we continued north to Westernville and the William Floyd House NHL, the home of the signer of the Declaration of Independence. Although a private home, the owners set up a very nice little plaque area at the road side. We also walked down the driveway a little for photos of the attractive house."

Log Excerpt: "For this Signer grave we had a web page photo with the church in the background, so it didn’t take long to locate it."
