FIELDS OF FLOYD...THE RICHARD FLOYD
MANSION
"Pattersquas built in 1761"
MASTIC BEACH: Photo taken in April
of 1957, just a month before little 7 year old Benny
Hooper would put it on the World NEWS Map.
Here we see young Gary & Johnny Messinetti or vice versa,
in their backyard (didn't every kid in 1950's MB have a mansion
in their backyard?) on the banks of Pattersquash Creek . Their
newly bricked Uncle Doc's Mansion / Hospital shines in the background.
