Tour the oldest house in NY - and its graveyard

Once dubbed the haunted house on the block, this Queens home now stands as a historic landmark. But, it's much more than that.

I came across this house with it’s Riker cemetery while researching my Riker and Lent ancestors and many of my ancestors are buried there. I contacted Marion Duckworth Smith and had several sweet conversations with her.She and her late husband have been such wonderful caretakers of this amazing property and all Riker and Lent descendants owe them so much!
