  The Noah Hallock Cemetery is situated on the north side of Hallock Lane, near the intersection of Hallock Landing Road and Culross Drive in Rocky Point, a thriving community on the north shore of Long Island. The cemetery dates from the 1700s when Noah Hallock (1696-1773), the great-grandson of Peter Hallock of Southold, settled on the “landing road Noah Hallock built the homestead, also called the Noah Hallock House (ca. 1721), which is on the plot of land currently bounded by Hallock Landing Road, Culross Drive, and Hallock Lane. This is the oldest house still standing in Rocky Point. The cemetery is very close to the Noah Hallock house, only a couple of hundred feet northwest of the house. In 2012, the Rocky Point Historical Society (RPHS) initiated an effort to acquire and preserve the Noah Hallock house. And in the spring of 2013, they purchased the house and began preservation efforts. Tours of the house and cemetery are given Saturdays from 1 to 3 PM from the Spring to the Fall. Noah and his wife Bethiah were among the first known European settlers of Rocky Point. Approximately 40 family members, starting with Noah and Bethiah, were buried in the Noah Hallock Cemetery until the 1920s. Included among those buried there are Josiah Hallock, the 1st, and Noah Hallock, the 2nd, who were both Revolutionary War patriots. Other Hallock descendants are buried in the Sea View Cemetery next to the Congregational Church, just off North Country Road, in Mt. Sinai, as well as in other Suffolk County cemeteries.
