Thomas Wheeler was the first settler who constructed a small house at the intersection of Hauppauge (Route 111) and Townline Roads before 1740. In the 1960s, most of the Suffolk County offices were relocated from Riverhead, New York to be closer to the more populated western portion of the county. The former and merged name was Wheeler Settlement. That name stuck until 1843, when it reverted to Hauppauge. It derives its name from Algonquian for swampy area. In later years, Wheeler was followed by other settlers with still well-known local names like Blydenburgh.
