HISTORICAL OCCURRENCES: The original portion of the house was believed to be built in the late 1700's, later sections in the 1800's. During the 1800's this home was used as an Inn and in 1819 had a very famous guest by the name of Andrew Jackson who was in route to New York from Washington when he and 10 of his associates were caught in a snow storm. Mr. Jackson and his entourage stopped at the Inn for refreshment and rest. While there he negotiated the rental of a sleigh in order to continue the trip. This however did not work out all that perfect as the sleigh broke down and they had to rent another which enraged Mr. Jackson. He concluded his trip, but not before then Mr. Jackson let his feelings known. This incident was used against him in the presidential campaign between him and John Quincy Adams of which President Jackson won.
