South End Cemetery with Gardiner Wind Mill in background

Stopped in to get a photograph of the Gardiner Mill wind mill. Taking a walk through the cemetery looking for a good vantage point I came across the Gardiner family memorials. Lion Gardiner was a colonist engineer sent to Connecticut to build a fort after which he purchased the Island that bears his name. The island is still privately owned by his heirs. The island is between the two eastern forks of Long Island.
