The Home of Tjerck Matthyssen Van Keuren, 138 Green Street in Kingston, New York is the oldest home of the Van Keuren/Van Curen family in America. Built in 1682 by Tjerck's father, Matthys, it is still in use today, despite being damaged by fire in October 1776, and again in October, 1777. During the Latter, October 17, 1777, Johannes Van Keuren was born in the cellar of the home as the British sacked Kingston.
