The original first ten chapters of the Knapp story are called "Sections". That's because the Town Of Mastic Beach was developed into ten sections ... and that is where this story begins. It's kind of an inside thing for Mastic Pioneers who may discover this site. This site is about much,much more than Mastic Beach or Mastic, Shirley, Bellport, Southampton, Sands Point, Garden City, Greenlawn,Stony Brook, Yaphank, Hampton Bays, Brooklyn, NYC, or other places the Knapps chose to live (like Florida, North Carolina, Catskills, Canada, Paris, etc). It's not just about the Knapp Family either.... Just thought you should know that before you start poking around .....
