Jupiter Hammon
History on Lloyd Plantation/Lloyd Manor at Lloyd Neck
The Information Please Almanac states that Mr. Jupiter Hammon, a slave born on the Henry Lloyd Plantation on "Lloyd Neck", which became Lloyd Harbor, Long Isand. All of this was near Oyster Bay.
Hammon became the second* published African American in the USA. The Lloyd family, after whom the Village of Lloyd Harbor was named, sent him to school. Hammon became a Christian and began writing religious materials. His well-known An Evening Thought, was produced on Christmas in 1760, when he was 49 years old.
*A Briton Hammon is felt to be the first African American published, specifically with Narrative of the Uncommon Sufferings and Surprizing Deliverance of Briton Hammon, a Negro Man in Boston in July 1760. Jupiter did not compose his first poem until Christmas 1760 and it was published in 1761. No one has any idea wether Briton and Jupiter were related. Reference: found specifically in Complete writings by Phillis Wheatley; page 201.

Today's Lloyd Harbor
Lloyd Harbor is a village in the Town of Huntington in Suffolk County. It is another of the Bloomberg BusinessWeek Wealthiest 25 Towns in America and is near other Long Island villages and towns that were named to the list (see map).
A local black oak tree, very large and 550 years old, fell in a storm during 2006 and was subsequently salvaged for use in redecorating the Lloyd Harbor Village Hall. The stump of the tree was maintained with new shoots emerging, with the hopes of replacing the oak, which was a Registered National Historic Tree. Failing all this, its last year of acorns could be used for new growth.
Huntington overall encourages public art and sustainable green spaces. Physical art installations indoors and outdoors, along with displays of teen poetry in public buses are part of this movement. A set of murals can be found along town walls as well, one of an English pub and very realistic.
