The Craig House At Monmouth Battlefield State Park
The earliest section of the Craig Farmhouse was built by Samuel Craig in 1746. The original house was a one-and-one-half story Dutch-framed structure. It was enlarged in the 1770s by John Craig, Jr. with the extension of the Georgian-style two-story addition on the west side.
The farmers and their slaves grew wheat, rye, Indian Corn, and oats while horses, cattle, sheep and hogs fed in the pastures.
