Our specialty tour, “Washington and the Manor,” focuses on the colonial rooms in which Washington spent time.

The Talented Major Tallmadge
This PowerPoint presentation explores the multi-faceted Revolutionary War career of Setauket native Benjamin Tallmadge. Tallmadge was an exceptional leader of dragoons, intelligence and counter-intelligence officer, and master of land-sea combined operations. He fought in the battles of Long Island, White Plains, and Germantown, and defended the Patriot population of Westchester from British and Tory depredations. Commanding his own legion, he launched punishing raids on British outposts on Long Island from his bases in Connecticut. All the while he ran Washington’s most continuously active espionage network on Long Island and in New York and played a key role in foiling the Arnold-Andre plot to betray West Point to the British. The program concludes with an overview of Tallmadge’s post war career as businessman and Congressman. Open and free to the public. Light refreshments served.
