Long Island Telephone Directories
 
   
  1880
                     
    In the early days of the telephone, not everyone was able to afford such a luxury. So, if your family is not listed here, it does not mean they did not live in the area. If there is an occupation listed, that means that this is a business listing. Otherwise it is a residence. (When there are 2 addreses given - the first is the business address.) In some cases, the business was in a different town - and there would be a seperate listing. The phone numbers are not listed. Here is, however,  a typical number from 1912 :     467-w   Freeport
