Albertus Van Loon House : ウィキペディア英語版 | Albertus Van Loon House
The Albertus Van Loon House (surname is pronounced like "van loan") is one of the oldest extant buildings in New York State. It is located in Athens, New York at 85 North Washington Street (also known as New York State Route 385). It is inside the "Village of Athens Multiple Resource Area (MRA)". It was built by Albertus Van Loon, who was one of eight children of Jan Van Loon. Jan was the earliest European settler to the area, and gave the settlement its first name: ''Loonenburg''. Only one wall of Jan Van Loon's house still stands nearby, at 39 South Washington Street.〔 Albertus' house is in what was called the Upper Village.〔 The house is rectangular with 1.5 stories with stone walls, although a gambrel roof was added between 1775–1800. After Albertus died in 1754, the Van Loon family lived in the house for three generations and moved out in the early 19th century.〔 Albertus Van Loon helped the town grow by being one of those who donated land for the Zion Lutheran Church (Athens, New York).〔 ==References==
