History
5
Built about 1836 by John Haring, Jr., this house is an example of Greek Revival architecture and retains many original features. Haring’s homestead stood on 14½ acres, and he also owned adjacent lands that he farmed for decades. The premises were inherited by his daughter Sarah Elizabeth, the wife of merchant Jacob G. Demarest. In 1908, it came into the possession of Nellie and Walter Fred, and in 1959 it was purchased by the Williams family.
