Comparison of the DuBols Fort historical oak chronology from the
middle and rear cellar rooms with the New Paltz oak dating master
derived from the Jean and Abraham Hasbrouck houses. The oak dating
master was in turn independently dated against a regional oak
master. This result indicates that the original DuBois Fort was
constructed from trees cut in late 1703 or early 1704. The two oak
series have an extremely high correlation that is significant at
much less then the 0.001 level, or 1 in 1000 of being wrong. With a
correlation of 0.75 between the two series, it is almost certain
that the trees came from the same woodlot as well.
