Amos Patterson was one of sixty investors of the Boston Purchase and built his new home on approximately 600 acres that is now the Town of Union. Amos moved his wife Ann and their eleven children from Richmond, MA to their new home in the Southern Tier of New York. Through the years Washingtonian Hall has been a river stop, a stagecoach stop, a trolley stop, an Inn, a restaurant, and meeting place for the temperance movement, and a private residence.
