			New Jersey and New York disagreed about the boundary until 1769. Richard Gardner worked for the New Jersey claim and tried to enforce that claim with local landowners, and much of Warwick was considered to be in New Jersey. The dispute was settled in 1769 by the famous “Waywayanda and Cheesecocks Patent Trial” held in Goshen.  Opposing attorneys were Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr.
