Includes folk art portrait of the "Colden family", plus painting of the house. There are some errors, primarily dates-- as with many of these, the writers had difficulty keeping the various Cadwalladers straight. The 1675 could have been a transposed 1765, which is another date I've seen for the house.

This article says "A stone in the upper wall of the pediment bears the inscription: "Built by I., W. and G. Many, three brothers, in 1767."

There is also a detailed description of the cemetery. According to the article, the wall around the cemetery was placed there by Charles Rhind [Jr.] (1810-1909)

4."Historical Notes", The Newburgh News, Nov. 3, 1949, p. 6.

A bit of description of the outside of the house. The end of the article contains a description of the wallpaper that was used in the house.

5. "Biographical. For the Daily New. The Colden Family." The Newburgh Daily News, April 19, 1861, p. 1.

The majority of the article might be from Eager's History of Orange County. Offhand I noticed several errors, but there's a lot of info to keep in mind.

The note at the end, following the endnotes, gives a list of the various Colden homes in the area and their locations and current occupants-- this info might be from Eager's History of Orange County, but I don't think it all is. It states that Colden Sr. built the mansion house, but I've never seen that anywhere else-- maybe CC Sr. lent a hand...
