History

The area of marsh along the coast was occupied by a band of Lenape, known as the Matinecock – a name associated with the place. [2]

The Matinecock sold the area in 1660 to Richard Latting and his son, Josiah Latting. The Lattings sold marsh reeds for use in thatched-roof houses. [2] [3] The same family later established the hamlet of Lattingtown at Marlborough, Ulster County, New York, north of Manhattan. [2] [4]

Lattingtown incorporated as a village in 1931. [2] [5]

The 1986 film The Money Pit was partially filmed at a run-down house in Lattingtown. [6]
