Paulison-Christie House

Paulison-Christie House is located in Ridgefield Park, Bergen County, New Jersey, United States. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on January 10, 1983.

The house was built about 1775 by John Paulison who owned 150 acres in what was then known as "Old Hackensack." John Paulison was a Tory during the Revolutionary War and was known to have sold cattle from his farm to the British army. He was declared by the New Jersey Council of Safety to be a "disaffected person" on July 11, 1777 and was arrested for his suspected Tory sympathies. He spent months confined to the jail in Morristown, being freed in a prisoner exchange in New York City.

In 1779, the farm was raided by the British, who made no distinction between patriots and Torys in such instances. In 1826, John Paulison's son, Paul Paulison, inherited the house. In 1844, David Christie purchased the property for his son Albert Brinkerhoff Christie. The farmhouse remained in the Christie family for 140 years.
