I would do that in the following way:
ShortLavin <- subset(Lavin, Site %in% c("PP","CC","FH"))

Of course, you could have done the subsetting within the call to glm:
fit1poisson <- glm(NumUniqOpPt~Seq+Site,family=poisson(link = "log"),
data=subset(Lavin, Site %in% c("PP","CC","FH")),
offset=log(NumUniqPt))

Minus127 <- subset(ShortLavin, !rownames(ShortLavin) %in% 127)
