History of Brentwood

The area that is now Brentwood was originally home to the Secatogue tribe of the Algonquian Indians. In 1694, the first Euro-American settler, Josiah Sop, purchased land in modern-day Brentwood from the Secatogues. By 1794, what was known as Modern Times had grown to 543 residents. The community continued to develop through the 19th century, becoming known as Brentwood in 1867. Significant growth occurred after the Long Island Railroad established a rail stop in the area in 1868. Immigrants from Poland, Italy, Ireland, Germany, and other European nations settled in Brentwood during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. African-American migrants also made Brentwood their home during the Great Migration of the early 20th century.
