Description
Joshua Guerin House
Born in 1737, Mr. Guerin served as a Private and Ensign in the Morris County Militia under Silvanus Seeley.
He lived on Jockey Hollow Road. Part of his farm was used as an army encampment during the winter of 1779–1780. Guerin let soldiers pasture horses on his land but soon filed complaints with the Quartermaster Corps. The troops had stolen his livestock and laundry. In December 1779, several soldiers spent one night at his home and took his clothes and tools when they left.
The Joshua Guerin House still stands today. Once a wreck during the 1934 HABS survey, it is now owned by the National Park Service and closed to the public.
