dc.descriptionIn July 1778, word reached Theodosia that George Washington and his troops would be passing through Ho-Ho-Kus on their way from the recent battle at Monmouth Courthouse to White Plains in Westchester County, New York. When the General Washington and his entourage stopped at a local house, Theodosia Bartow Prevost, sent an invitation to Washington for him and his men to come and stay at The Hermitage. Visitors to the house during the Revolution included James Monroe, William Paterson, the Marquis de Lafayette, Alexander Hamilton, Lord Stirling and Aaron Burr.
