Just something to keep in mind, especially around the dates 1918-22. Sands Point Golf Club, which is different from The Village Club of Sands Point, started as a 9 hole golf course, before it was redesigned by Tillinghast.
Bellow is the first paragraph from the Sands Point Golf Club history page. If you scroll down further you will see that Harry Guggenheim was listed as an early member when the club hired Tillinghast to expand the course.

By Arnold E. Monetti[/color][/size][/font][/size][/color]PRENATAL PERIODA farm there was in Cow’s Neck, as the area was known at the turn of the century, owned by the brothers Cornwell, William and Walter, and farmed by their tenant, Peter J. Mahoney. It was destined to be a great golf course. In a house located where the cottage behind the 18th green now stands, lived William and, in another, on the site of the present 13th green, Walter. Some of the apple trees which shaded the homes are still there. Peter’s house was that long occupied by Howard Dietz. The produce barns were located where the present stables are and the carriage barn on the site of the present Club House. Farmer Mahoney grew truck garden vegetables which he washed in the carriage barn before taking them to market in New York City, a day’s journey by horse and wagon in those primordial days.In 1918 the Cornwells sold the property to a New York lawyer named George E. Reynolds, of the Reynolds Tobacco Company family, who built the first 9 holes of the present golf course (now the back nine). Reynolds operated the Harbor Hills Country Club which had a brief existence before the property was acquired by Julius Fleischman in 1921.[/font][/color]
