Commack's History

According to the Smithtown Historical Society, Richard “Bull” Smith purchased the portion of Commack (that lies within the town of Smithtown) as part of the colonial land grant in 1665 and as part of another land grant known as the Winnecomac Patent in 1689.

The name Comac is derived from the Algonquin Indian word, “Winnecomac,” meaning "pleasant land" or "beautiful place" and it was the name that the Native Americans and original inhabitants originally gave to the area. If you want to learn more about Commack and New York Indian Tribes.

In the 1900s, many settlers came to the area known as “Comac” and made it their home. It was mostly a farming community and among the farms, homes and small businesses began to spring up within the area around Jericho Turnpike and Townline Road. In about 1906, the spelling of the name changed to Commack.

Historical records indicate that the mail for Comac was often mixed up with the mail for the town of Coram (a town about 15 miles east on Long Island) and the U.S. Postal Service decided to change the spelling of the name to end the confusion.
