The Suffolk Times is the community weekly newspaper that has served the North Fork of Long Island (NY) continuously since its founding in 1857. It is, or has been, the official newspaper of Southold Town, Shelter Island Town and the Incorporated Village of Greenport, where it was based until 1988. That year it relocated to Mattituck, where it shares offices with its sister publication, The News-Review of Riverhead.  (Quoted from the Suffolk Times "About Us" Web site at http://www.timesreview.com/st-legalnotice.htm)
