The '76 House, also known as the Old '76 House, is a Colonial-era structure built as a home and tavern in Tappan, New York in 1754 by Casparus Mabie, a merchant and tavern-keeper.
In spite of local claims of much earlier construction , the '76 House appears only to predate the American Revolution by several decades. The earliest confirmed dates concerning any structure on or near the site involve one Antie Myers, a widow, who was licensed in 1705 to sell drink, "as per her recognizance," in her house in the immediate neighborhood of today's '76 House. After her death around 1721 her home was purchased by Yoast Mabie, a brother of Casparus. The house was demolished in 1835. In 1753, Casparus Mabie bought a piece of land from Cornelis Myers, Antie's son.
