Richard T. Cooper House

Built about 1825 by Richard Teunis Cooper, a chairmaker, on land owned by the family since 1716. This Federal style house, once on a 22 acre farm, is in the Oradell locality formerly known as New Milford. Son John R. Cooper, a master blacksmith, sold the homestead in 1866 and entered the ministry. Later owners have made additions and remodeled the interior of the house.

Sponsored by the Traphagen Family, 1985.
