Inscription. This house stands on the north half of lot No. 42 of the Kakiat Patent bought from William Bayard by Peter Perry c. 1773. The earliest section of the existing structure was probably built by his son Johannes c. 1774. It has been enlarged and considerably altered throughout the years. In 1832 the farm was devised to Johannes' daughter Mary, wife of Abraham Horn[,] and remained in the Horn family until 1908.
