"Excellent historical place."
"THE VAN RIPER-HOPPER HOUSE #waynenj The house was built in 1786 by Uriah Van Riper. The house remained in the Van Riper family and was bequeathed to Uriah Van Riper's great granddaughter, Mary Ann Van Riper, who married Andrew Hopper in 1872. On July 6, 1964, the house was officially dedicated as the Wayne Township Museum.[4] Prior to Uriah's building the house, the property was purchased by Richard (Dirck) Van Riper in 1762, and consisted of 145 acres.[5] The town of Wayne was known as Saddle River at the time, which is referenced in Richard Van Riper's will. The "barn house" in the back was removed from its original place near the Wayne Hills Mall, and transported to the property of the Van Riper House Museum. #jerseycollective #njspots #onlyinnewjersey #northjerseyadventures #discovernj #newjerseyisbeautiful #bestofnewjersey #foundinnj #visitnj #njphotographers #njphotography #newjersey #njisntboring #newjersyisntboring #oldhouselove #oldhouses #archi_ologie #vanriper #architecturephotography #historicarchitecture #preservationnj #deservetopreserve #nationalregistry #nationalregistryofhistoricplaces #dutchcolonial"
