Tour with the East Hampton Trails Preservation Society: A Tale of Two Houses – Sherrills or Parsons

August 13, 2025 @ 10:00 am

The East Hampton Trails Preservation Society is presenting a walking tour focused on two important families of East Hampton, the Sherrills and Parsons. Mary Foster Morgan, a Sherrill and Parsons descendant, will describe visiting her grandparents in East Hampton during the 1950s and 60s. She recalls her Grandmother Sherrill’s stories about early East Hampton and the “two Sherrill houses”—one on Main Street and another across from the Dominy shops on North Main Street. As a child, she was fascinated by who lived in those homes. We’ll walk from one to the other, and hear the insights Mary uncovered about her family, and early East Hampton values that resonate to this day. The tour covers 2.5 miles.

Meet at 10:00 AM at the Lumber Lane long term parking lot 2 in East Hampton.
