1720 Martin Berry House Dedication

October 13, 2018 @ 12:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Free

Built in 1720 by Dutch settlers, and listed on the national and state Register of Historic Places, Martin Berry House is among the oldest houses in NJ and one of the very few that have survived substantially unaltered since its construction.

The house, in Pompton Plains NJ, was purchased in 1951 by Charles and Eleanor Bogert, who restored and maintained the house with the intention of eventually selling it to Pequannock Township. Their dream was realized just last year when the township purchased it using grants and other funds.

Federal, state, and local elected officials, members of the Morris County Historic Preservation Trust, members of other historical societies, and honored guests including Eleanor Bogert will be invited to attend.
