Old Tappan CCTV & Security Cameras
During the Colonial years New York and New Jersey disputed bitterly over their boundary which divided governments as well as land rights. Finally, in 1769, commissioners appointed by the King of England settled the discord by deciding on the present state line. Change in jurisdiction occurred in 1733 and the line was marked with milestones in 1774 at points indicating the distance from the Hudson River. Milestone Four was off Orangeburgh Road North. Milestone Five was in Greenwoods.
The settlement of the New York-New Jersey boundary severed Old Tappan from its original connection with Orange County and the Colony of New York. It was now part of the Province of New Jersey.
Though title to their land was based on a New York land grant, provisions of the boundary settlement confirmed rights of ownership to Old Tappan landowners who found themselves on the New Jersey side of the line, as well as to those whose properties were now partly in both states. Soon after the settlement, the people of Old Tappan joined others in a petition for the formation of a new township which took in a large portion of northern Bergen County. It was known as Harington Township (spelling changed to Harrington in the latter part of the 19th century). Old Tappan was to be part of it for 119 years.
For 86 years Old Tappan was part of Orangetown, Orange County (South of the Mountains), New York. Tappan was the county seat and the first public structures built there were a church, jail, inn, and courthouse. Inhabitants of Old Tappan served in the Orange County militia, paid taxes to the Colony of New York, served as assessors, fence viewers, and road masters of Orangetown. The people continued to speak the Dutch language and Dutch customs prevailed. A census of 1702 reveals there were 279 inhabitants in all of Orange County.
