Haring, John, 1739-1809
John Haring (September 28, 1739 – April 1, 1809) was an American lawyer from New York City. He was a delegate for New York to the Continental Congress.
Born in Tappan in the Province of New York, Haring attended school in New York City, studied law, and was admitted to the bar, practicing in New York City and Rockland County. As the revolution neared he became a member, and then head of Orange County's Committee of Correspondence. In 1774, the county established their own form of self-government, by adopting the Orangetown Resolutions, which had been drafted by John and his brother Peter. One point in these resolutions was a non-importation agreement which embargoed British goods. When they sent Haring to the Continental Congress in Philadelphia, it adopted a very similar agreement on October 20, 1774.
