The Hubbs
		One of the earliest families to settle in Commack were the Hubbs. James Hubbs was responsible for helping start the Methodist Church here. Orlando Hubbs 1839-1930 was a New York State Assemblyman and then Senator. And many people still remember Grace Hubbs who was a teacher in both the Frame school and the Marion Carll school.
		The Hubbs owned a large amount of land on the south side of Jericho Turnpike west of Commack Corners. This house belonged to Ira Hubbs, who was the son of James Hubbs, and may be the original family home dating back to the mid 1700's.
					The Ira Hubbs house was torn down when the Commack Bowl was built.
					Once white rail fences lined the sides of Jericho Turnpike. These barns where located where the Heatherwood Shopping Center and Jeffrey's is today.
		The Frank Hubbs house was just west of Ira's. Frank was a Butcher and lived here until 1959.
					Ed Pryce and Sons rented their steam engine to help farmers during the thrashing season from July to September. Their pictured here working on the Fred Hubbs farm c.1910.
		This is another of the Hubbs Houses and may have stood around where the Long Island Savings Bank is.
					Ira Hubbs sits in the wagon waiting for Tom Hastings, a farm hand, to take him to school in the morning. Ira attended the south school on Commack Road.
		Frank Hubbs sits for a picture in his Butcher wagon out in front of the house. Commack only had two or three stores and most merchants went around and sold their goods by wagon each week.
