Bay Shore-Brightwaters Public Library

The Bay Shore Historical Society will meet Thursday, October 15, 2026 at 7 PM at the Bay Shore - Brightwaters Public Library (1 South Country Rd Brightwaters, NY).
Guest speaker Bill Bleyer will present "Robert Barnwell Roosevelt: Black Sheep of a Prominent Family". We will examine the controversial life of Theodore Roosevelt’s uncle, a noted reformer and Congressman whose scandalous personal life—including a secret second family—led to his exclusion from family history for generations. The talk highlights his significant contributions to conservation alongside his social transgressions.
Bill Bleyer is a historian, author, lecturer, and journalist. You can learn more about Bill Bleyer at: <a href="https://www.billbleyer.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">billbleyer.com/</a>
The meeting is open to the public at no charge. Refreshments will be served.
