Here I go again, trying to find a picture of Elizabeth Oakes Smith's Patchogue house. Here is a link to a picture snapped in 1890 showing Pine Street, which later became North Ocean Avenue, I think, and Lake Street. If the picture is pointing West, her home, The Willows, may be in the distance. Just a long shot ...
Also, the white church in the foreground could be the original Congregational Church, where the Smiths attended services and where Seba Smith's funeral was held. That building was later rebuilt on Main Street. The Tritec construction site is taking up this space currently- if I'm right in my guess.
