The Wick House was built between 1747 and 1750 by Henry Wick. The property was purchased in 1746 was known as the Dick Tract. Henry Wick and his family migrated from Long Island and the construction of the Wick House mirrors the style of their origin. Settlers were attracted to the Morris County by good farmland, the virgin timber supply, and deposits of iron ore. Henry Wick's main crop was trees which brought him his wealth.
