The stone house shows three building phases from c1793 to c1870, with framing that mixes Dutch and English methods. Records such as the 1798 tax inventory document a prosperous farm, sawmill and gristmill operation.","narrative":"Jenkins-DuBois Farm and Mill Site is a 107.6-acre property on Jenkinstown Road in Gardiner, Ulster County, New York, on the south bank of the Plattekill. It is what remains of 200 acres Lambert Jenkins bought in 1793. The core is a two-room stone house of about that date, later extended by his son James around 1820 with a frame ell framed in an English manner, and again between 1865 and 1875 by Johannes Jenkins. A second frame house, a c1865 barn, outbuildings and farmland complete the farm. Near the creek, the remains of a mill, its water system, bridge abutments and an abandoned road mark the site of the former Jenkinstown community. A 1798 tax inventory recorded a sawmill and gristmill, log dwellings and a blacksmith shop, placing Jenkins among the town's wealthiest property owners. The property was listed as a district for documenting agricultural and industrial life across several generations of one family.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Lambert Jenkins (stone house, c1793); James Jenkins (c1820 addition); Johannes Jenkins (c1865-1875 addition)","architectural_style":"No style","criteria":[],"status_note":"Current functions include a single dwelling, secondary structures, animal facilities and agricultural fields; mill remains and abandoned road features are visible as ruins.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:51:51.475742-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NY/01000581.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/01000581/6e4f0f0198-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/01000581/6e4f0f0198-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Daniel Case","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jenkins-DuBois_Farm.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Daniel Case</a>, <a href=\"http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jenkins-DuBois_Farm.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/75322638","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenkins%E2%80%93DuBois_Farm","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14706647"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/new-york/ulster-county/jenkins-dubois-farm-and-mill-site-01000581/"}
