Pantigo Windmill

Bearing a 1771 weathervane on top, the James Lane structure was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1984 as a contributing property of the East Hampton Village District.

According to his apprentice, William Baker, Schellinger built windmills at Brooklyn and Block Island, also in New York; and Nantucket, Massachusetts.

Also assisting on the mill was David Sherril, an East Hampton carpenter whose account book shows that he repaired several local windmills.

Dominy V does not mention the Pantigo windmill until 1821, when in his accounts he noted on a repair bill, "put Shaft beam to Mill" for Huntting Miller.

Huntting Miller left his property and the windmill to his grandson, Captain William Hedges, who acquired the mill in 1832.

David Hedges sold the mill to Hiram Sandford, who moved it to the corner of Pantigo Road and Egypt Lane, where it stood until 1917.

Dominy had only a year of service from his mill following these repairs, for in August 1879 a storm, described as the "heaviest since 1811", "twisted off" the iron cross holding the sails stocks."

[5] The Pantigo Windmill was purchased in 1917 by Gustav Buek, who moved it to the rear of Mulford Farmhouse on the East Hampton Common.

[8] Sylvester Manor, a nonprofit organization focused on historic preservation, happened to have three replacement sails that had been sitting unused in a barn since the 1950s.
