5. The
Adventurous Life of Jacob Conklin - Originally
appearing in "The Human Story of Long Island," by Verne
Dyson 1969 "Romance, adventure, and beauty have been
contributed to central Long Island by the Half Way Hollow
Hills, one of the most picturesque and attractive portions
of Paumanok. A glance at the map of the old Town of
Huntington will disclose the origin of the name. Just about
half way between the Sound and the Atlantic Ocean is a
pleasant wooded valley to which was given the name of Half
Way Hollow. This delightful vale divided two groups of hills
- Dix Hills on the north and Half Way Hollow Hills on the
south. Many noted people have lived in the alluring southern
uplands. The first of these was Jacob Conklin. "
