The house was described as a good size house with four rooms. It was situated in New Jersey so that it overlooked the Hackensack river. In Jan. of 1717 the house was the scene of a wedding between one of his daughters Geertruyd and Hendrick BANTA. It was reported to be filled with Dutch, French and English heirloom furniture and was still in use in the 1930's. It was torn down in 1951.
