In 1658, an English farmer named Daniel Whitehead purchased the land from the Matinecock Indians. The narrow tract faces northward onto Long Island Sound and southward onto Mill Neck Bay and Oyster Bay. The former names include Oak Neck and Pine Island. During mid-60’s and early 70’s, the development in Bayville came to a near stop as the Legislature in Albany debated whether to build a bridge across Long Island Sound from Bayville to Rye. The place would have become a base for bridge supports and ramps. After a bitter battle led by Bayville residents, Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller killed the plans for the bridge in 1973. It has taken a decade for Bayville to recover from the economic damage caused by the threat of the bridge. Now, new housing construction has just about used up the rest of the land available for development.
