Beyond The Walls of An Intriguing NY Farmhouse Abandoned For Four Decades

Educator’s Desk.

Carol probably worked at this desk. While growing up in the farmhouse, she was enrolled in a single-room schoolhouse. Carll attended high school in Jamaica, Queens, then returned to her home town as an educator.

She invited students to tour the farm to learn about local history and farm existence leading to a local school renamed Marion E. Carll in 1957. We know Carll donated the property to the Commack School District.
