History

Frederick Wortendyke owned this land in 1723, when it was part of a large grant called the Tappan Patent. His son Jacob owned the homestead during the Revolutionary War and was taken captive in one of many British raids in the area. Later owners included members of the Blauvelt, Demarest, and Herring families. Rebuilt over the years, the house became a combination of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century architecture.
