Native Americans called the area Conungum or Kanungum meaning “fixed line” or “boundary”. The community was known for growing cranberries in the swampy areas near the Peconic River. When the Long Island Rail Road arrived in 1844, the area was called “Baiting Hollow Station”. The station closed in 1958.

In 1978 Calverton National Cemetery was created from 1,000 acres of the the base. In 1995, the Navy began liquidating its land, and the area is now being developed as an industrial/office park.
