About Peachfield: Three hundred years ago Henry Burr established the Burr Family in New Jersey by building Peachfield in Westampton. The home remained in the Burr family for 200 years. In 1931 Norman and Miriam Harker purchased Peachfield and Mrs. Harker bequeathed Peachfield and its surrounding 120 acres of land to The National Society of The Colonial Dames in The State of New Jersey in 1965. Now used as the Society’s state headquarters the Dames of New Jersey have maintained Peachfield as a house museum. Surrounding farmlands adjacent to the house are still farmed as they have been for more than 300 years.
