The neighborhood was originally inhabited by Manhasset Indians for hundreds of years before whites arrived. It was in 1641 when the earliest recorded reference of the area had showed up in the Southampton town records. The community had been used primarily as pasture. The first two and a half centuries of habitation by whites was marked mostly by agricultural uses and several industries such as fishing and production of salt. The former and merged names of the neighborhood include Hog Neck. In 1842, it was renamed into North Haven because its residents thought the old name sounded deprecating. Then, the area had become a vacation destination, and by the turn of the century several actors and actresses constructed homes on the former Lewis Corwin farm, which eventually became known as Actor’s Colony.
