January 20, 2008 Historic Moment

Did you know....The land occupied by the original New Hackensack Reformed Church (on our current Route 376 adjacent to the cemetery) was a small part of the great tract of land sold by the Wappingers Indians in 1683 under what became known as the Rombout Patent. It included 85,000 acres that were subdivided and changed hands several times during the remainder of the 1700's and the first half of the 1800's.
