I consider myself very fortunate and privileged to be the current caregiver and owner of the Thomas Helme House. As I started my journey into researching the house and family along with restoring the Helme House itself, I felt that a house with such an abundance of history should be shared with others along with the restoration and conservation experience. The Helme family left a rich legacy from a very early period in the colonization of the Town of Brookhaven, Long Island, New York and therefore the purpose of this website is to present a historical timeline of the people, house and property that have been so much a part of Miller Place, the “Ould Mans” and surrounds.
I hope you will return to visit the website as when new finds or information is gleaned it will appear here as this project is being continually updated.
