  "Isaac, Jr . . . began oyster harvesting along the creeks and in the harbor at Northwest. When he married about 1783, after the British occupation of Long Island, he continued to live in the family house. When his son was born in 1790, after two daughters, Isaac, Jr. planted a yellow bark oak tree near the front door. This male chauviniistic emblem lasted 140 years until the tree was blown down in the disasteroous 1938 hurricane."
