Niamuck was once the primary location of settlemen Niamuck was once the primary location of settlement for the Shinnecock people prior to the current Shinnecock Reservation. From the current Shinnecock Canal to the southernmost land tip, the Shinnecock people existed before contact.
Shinnecock people primarily resided in the area until ca. 1703, though historical maps show continued presence until the mid 19th century.
In 1791, Rev. Paul Cuffee organized a Congressional church in the Niamuck area. Part of the church remains in the area while the other half was moved to the Shinnecock Reservation and is still used today. Cuffee was buried on the spot where the church once stood.
This place is now known as the Shinnecock Canal.
