Abraham Daniel Haring's HouseIt was built on land bought by Daniel Haring of Northvale, NJ in 1773 from the Bayard Patent. Dowe H. Talman constructed the house for Daniel's son Abraham D. Haring in 1783. Talman placed his initials "DHT" and the date "1783" on a stone under the eaves. Abraham Daniel Haring was born Mary 2, 1748 and baptized May 15 at the Tappan Church. He married Dirckie Ferdon, born April 8, 1749, died June 17, 1841, at age 92. He is buried in the cemetery which was connected with the Nanuet True Reformed Church and which now forms a small part of a large cemetery still in use in Nanuet. The Daniel Abraham Haring who bought the property was the son of Abraham Jan Haring, who was himself the fourth son of the immigrant Jan Pieters Haring. Daniel's sister Rachel was married to Dowe H. Talman, so the house was actually built for Daniel by his brother-in-law.
