The Craig House on Monmouth Battlefield State Park
After the battle, the Craig family and their descendants continued to farm the property until 1943, when the property was sold to Ernest Tark who used it as worker housing for his farm. The house was not maintained well during the Tark years and fell into disrepair. In 1965 the State of New Jersey purchased the property and, with the help of the Friends of Monmouth Battlefield, have since restored the house and barn.
