Smith's great-granddaughter Anna (who was part of the Setauket Spy Ring during the American Revolution) married Selah Strong and the neck was renamed Strong's Neck. Anna was to coordinate communication among the spies via the color of clothes hung on her clothes line on Strong's Neck. The Strong family still owns the site of the original Smith mansion and William "Tangier" Smith and many of his progeny are buried there. (en) |
