“…my cousin Don and I were both very impressed not only by [the docent’s] knowledge, by also by his magnificent ability to connect with us as we experienced a place where our family trod during the American Revolution.  I was overwhelmed by the picture of Matthewis Persen because of his family resemblance.  I could actually see my dad and grandfather in his face—Amazing!” Richard Persen, Descendant of Matthewis Persen, 2015

 “The students [from Utrecht University in the Netherlands] were visiting Rutgers University as part of an exchange with our Honors Program celebrating the deep roots of Rutgers in Dutch culture. Visiting the Matthewis Persen house was truly the highlight of our trip.” Jennifer M. Jones, Dean for School of Arts and Sciences Honors Program at Rutgers University, 2016

“I want to extend my sincerest gratitude to you and the 3 staff members at the Persen House for permitting me the opportunity to act as a guest host… I could not have asked for a better experience.” Don Terpening, Revolutionary War Medical Reenactor, 2017

“We wanted to thank you for the wonderful tour…It was informative and gave us a great insight into what the life of our ancestors, Slecht/Sleight, might have been like.  Our trip was so much fun and we only wish we could have spent more time in Kingston.” Beverly Slaght Peters, Faustina Peters & Gloria Slaght Anderson, 2017
