• Notes

  Augustus Gardiner is included in this database because he was reported to have been one of the early postmasters for Fire Place. Little other evidence has so far been found of his residency in the area. However, other likely candidates have not been found; his relatively short tenancy as postmaster suggests that he did not reside long in South Haven or Fire Place, NY. Augustus Gardiner was a direct descendent of Lion Gardiner, original proprietor and Lord of Gardiner's Island.
