When Wilson J. Terry was Postmaster of Sayville (1853-1861 and 1866-1869) his house on the corner of Gillette Avenue and Main Street (where Thornhill's Drug Store is today) served as Sayville's Post Office.  Mail was left on and picked up from a table in the front hall of the house.  The house was later moved down Foster Avenue to the southeast corner of Foster Avenue and Pine Street.
