A detailed map from "Atlas of Long Island, New York. From recent and actual surveys and records." Many land owners names are given. Woodhaven was settled in the mid-1700's as a farming community by the Ditmar, Lott, Wyckoff, Suydam, and Snediker families. One of the greatest Revolutionary War Battles occurred in Woodhaven. John Pitkin developed the eastern part as a worker's community and named it Woodville in 1835. In 1853 the residents voted to change the name to Woodhaven.
