Two early settlers, John Hicks from Flushing and John Spragg from England came to the area in 1643 at which time it became known as Hick’s Neck. The pair extended the area south to the salt meadows. In 1686, John Pine built the first grist mill on Milburn Creek which brought in more settlers with an array of trades including marshing, raising longwood, raising sheep, farming, and fishing.
