Prevost House
Approximately 900 acres of land first owned by Thomas Lowery, was purchased by Paul Henri Mallet-Prevost. In 1825, a 39-acre parcel was deeded to brothers Andrew & Louis Prevost. This house, constructed in two sections at different times, now stands on a small portion of that property.
The front section is Late Federal/Early Greek Revival in style and has not been significantly altered since it was built in 1840. The existing kitchen [at the back of the house] was built a a later date. [ATHS]

Hickory Tavern #2 [Hickory Corners] c.1800-1865
'The Hickory'/'Old Hickory' [Bethlehem/Union Township]
One of the best know hostelries in early Hunterdon. It was a regular stop for stagecoaches, feeding travelers and providing lodging. It also served the teamsters who brought iron bars from Bloomsbury to the forge in Pittstown.
Snell’s History of Hunterdon County states: “The signboard [for the tavern] was fastened up in a hickory tree; hence the name..." "In after years it was famous for its balls and dances. Some years since [circa 1860] Garrett Conover purchased the property and took down the sign and sheds...”
The first building was a log structure. One hundred-fifty acres of land were leased by James Parker & John Stevens to John & Adonijah Farnsworth with the understanding that the Farmsworths would build "a Good Logg house 28 foot by 22, a good cellar under the whole, to be Walled with Stones; a good kitchen... Logg Barn & Stables, etc." to be used as a tavern.
According to several early maps, this building was located on the north corner of the current intersection of Routes 579 & 614 in Bethlehem [now Union] Township, although recent research casts some doubt on that exact location. It apparently lasted through the remainder of the 18th century.
Around 1800 a new tavern was built across the road on the west corner of the intersection [in Alexandria Township] and that one functioned until the 1860s.
Owners &/or tavern keepers of the second structure were:
1796-1832 Peter Van Syckel [owner]
John Kephart
Issac Bennet
Matthias Fishbaugh
John Bunn [innkeeper, no deed indicating ownership]

[HCPN]

West Portal
Jacob Moore kept a tavern here as early as 1761. Tavern owner Jacob Smith sold in 1837 to Joseph Cornish.
Record number of early names included:
Jug Tavern or Jug Town named for the tavern.
By 1843 the name had changed to Bethlehem.
By 1880 to West End [meaning the west end of the rail tunnel through Jugtown Mountain].
In 1888 it became Ferndean for a month; then the name was changed to West Portal.

Valley, NJ [locate]
Another mystery location that appears in local documents is the name "Valley". The origin of the name "Valley" is not known by this writer, but the location is set by the location of the Valley Station Road and a map that I have with the name "Valley" on it in the area of the said road.
The Valley Station Road name indicates that there was a railroad station at the intersection of the Central Railroad of New Jersey track and the road. The Swayze Mine history states that the mine operated a tramway down the north face of the mountain to transport ore to the road where it was carted one-half mile to the railroad. This suggests that the Valley Station was an ore loading point. Someone in the West Portal area must know more about this because this tram way loading system had to be in use in 1943 also.

Jugtown Mountain
Midpoint of the Musconetcong Mountain Range and highest hill in the vicinity, it was named for the 1761 "Jug" Tavern at the bottom of the hill to the west. The 4900' Lehigh Valley RR tunnel beneath was the longest in the East in 1875. Second tube opened in 1928.

Jersey Barriers
Frequent dangerous accidents on Jugtown Mountain led to the first installation here of the concrete road dividers, which later became famous and are now also in use to defend against terorists.

Wild Cat Rocks [locate]
A ledge of rocks which in 1877 were described as being near the lands of George Hubbs.

Hannah's Rock
Said to be the largest uncovered rock in the state. Named for land owner Hannah Quick. Legend says that during the Revolution, a shoemaker & ladder maker lived and worked their trades in a cave beneath.

Bog Meadows
One of the last remaining "Quaking Bogs" in New Jersey. Put under Bethlehem Twp. protection in 1977.

Swayze Mine
West Portal Mines, Inc. mined magnetite here, producing over 250,000 tons of ore a year from 1939 to 1943. Rock dumps still remain, along with some building ruins.
The Swayze Mine sign inscription highlights the name changes and confusion over time. In 1939 the village name was West Portal so the mining companies name then was West Portal Mines, Inc. In the 1800's, the village name was Jugtown to identify with a roadside tavern, then Bethlehem, and then West End to identify with the name of the West End Mining Company that operated the Swayze Mine. Afterward, the village name was changed to West Portal to identify with the nearby railroad tunnel portal through the mountain.

Turkey Hill Mine/West End Mine
It is believed that the Turkey Hill Mine was informally called the West End Mine and the Swayze Mine operated by the West End Mining Company was referred to as the East End Mine during the their duel period of operation.
However confusing this is, the fact that the village of West Portal's name was West End from 1880 to 1889 only adds to the modern day confusion of wondering whether or not the reference to a mine is by formal name or via its relative direction from the village.
The name of the Turkey Hill Mine was the Broderick Mine and the Harris Mine in the earlier days.
Today, this mine stretches across private property and any evidence of the mine has disappeared over the years.
West End Mine (Broderick Mine; Harris Mine; Turkey Hill Mine), Musconetcong Mtn, West Portal, Bethlehem Township, Hunterdon Co., New Jersey, USA
The Turkey Hill Mine was an magnetite iron ore mine located on the North slope of the Musconetcong Mountain range SW of West Portal (West End).
1872 - Operation commenced
1884 - Closed in July
1885 - Reopened
1886 - Closed forever
Ore vein was 4,450 feet (1,470 meters) long. Workings featured a 130-foot deep shaft (1872) and a 290-foot deep shaft (1885).

Vliet Lime Kiln
The kiln is on private property and it is NOT OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.
The Vliet family limekiln is a large four-bayed furnace on the upper terrace on the north bank of the Musconetcong River near the present Person Road Bridge. Both western hearth recesses are barrel-vaulted. The other two built later are linteled with railroad ties. This appears to have been a large operation. The actual age of the limekiln is unknown. This type of construction dates back to ancient times.
The limekiln was on the Warren County side of the Vliet family farmstead that crossed the Musconetcong River into Hunterdon County where the Vliet family resided. The limekiln was probably built on the Warren County side of the river because the lime quarry was there.

Churches

North Hunterdon Methodist Church
In 1827, George Garrison and his wife, Mary Johnston Garrison (granddaughter of Judge Samuel Johnston), donated the land for the church and graveyard which sits adjacent to the church. At that time, the church was known as the Mine Hole Church, due to its proximity to an iron mine, the Norton Furnace (ca. 1743). It has had various names over the years. The church itself is in both Bethlehem AND Union Townships (Union Township was incorporated in 1853) -- the preaching area is in Bethlehem and the seating area is in Union. The large stained-glass window at the rear of the church was, at one time, the front of the church. The current North Hunterdon Methodist was formed from the merger of Norton United Methodist, Hampton United Methodist and Glen Gardner United Methodist. The Church has a very active Thrift Shop in the basement, which helps to support its mission work.

St. Joachim's Mission Church
(Roman Catholic - 1873 to 1944)
Information taken from "Golden Anniversary Celebration 1948-1998 Church of the Annunciation, Bloomsbury, NJ."
"St. Joachim's Mission Church began in 1871 with a vision, a mountain and a tunnel under construction located approximately 12 miles from Easton, PA, for the Easton Amboy railroad which was an extension of the Lehigh Valley Railroad to Tidewater, NJ (now known as Perth Amboy, NJ). Since a Methodist Church already existed at the western side of the tunnel, it was felt a Catholic Church should be constructed for the workers of that denomination.
From the diary of Bishop Corrigan, the Bishop for the entire state of NJ we learn: The St. Joachim's Mission Church was founded in 1873 and was blessed by Fr. Francis O'Neill of Hampton, NJ on June 21, 1874...it further states, since we were a mission church we were fortunate to have the volunteer services of a sexton, Mr. William Flaherty... His chores included weekly cleaning of the church, cutting the grass with a sickle and down on his hands and knees to finish the trimming with a pair of scissors. This gentleman, in his mid-fifties, made sure water, taken from a brook nearby, for the cruets was available and assisted the priest with anything necessary for the celebration of the mass...on February 5, 1944, Bill went to the church to do his chores and start the fires so it would be warm for us on Sunday morning...later when he returned to check on the fires, he noted the smoke pipes were red hot and had ignited the aged wood surrounding them. He ran to the nearby residence of Mrs. Margaret Stengel who cared for the altar and linens, to get help. Since she nor any neighbors had phones, by the time the fire departments of Bloomsbury and Phillipsburg were notified and arrived at the scene, too much time had elapsed and the church was totally destroyed."
St. Joachim's was not rebuilt; the Church of the Annunciation was built in Bloomsbury, NJ.

West Portal United Methodist Church
Incorporated June 23, 1976, by the then trustees (Russell Vliet, Jr., Harold Vliet, Bruce DeGroff, Paul Hagaman, Andrew Beatty, Marilyn Bird, Floyd Apgar, Willis Apgar and John Parisi). According to the deed (per Maureen Vliet DeGroff), the land, containing thirty-five hundredths of an acre more or less, was purchased for $32.52 by the trustees (Joseph Smith, Coonvor Swezy, Asher Smith, David Chamberlain and Moses Farrow) from Benjamin J. Opdyke and Catherine Opdyke.
The church was founded in 1849; built in 1849; and, remodeled in 1876 (stained glass windows were probably added beginning with the remodel). The church was first known as the Methodist Episcopal Church, West End Church, then the Bethlehem Methodist Church and then became the West Portal United Methodist Church -- in its early years, up through the 1940s+, it was yoked with the Asbury Methodist Church.
Additional information can be found in the attached 1) handout from the church's 150th anniversary celebration and the first two pages of the deed to the church. (The information in the handout is taken primarily from the History of Hunterdon and Somerset Counties, NJ, compiled by James P. Snell.)

Cemeteries

Creveling Family Burying Ground
The Creveling Family Burying Ground was restored in 2007. The plot is enclosed by a stone wall measuring 50' x 50'. The walls are four feet high. The cemetery took Terry Tersigni, a descendant, six months to restore to its former state. He built a foundation nine feet below the ground surface and three feet wide. Terry used all the original stones in the reconstruction. It was a tangled web of weeds, debris and stone rubble before he started. The cemetery was no longer visible. It took Terry one month just to clear before he started the excavation. He built it to last for centuries. An iron gate is located in the center of the eastern wall. Reinforced concrete capstones were installed to duplicate the original appearance.
The original stone wall was erected ca. 1895.
There is evidence of some 30-40 burials. Only a few of the original markers remain. Several tombstones and fragments of markers were incorporated into the stone wall during the restoration process to ensure their preservation. The first interment in the burying ground was Johannes Creveling, Sr. on January 20, 1782. The final known burial was that of the infant son of Andrew and Mary Creveling on July 5, 1841.
A bronze plaque to the left of the gate reads:
In these grounds lie the original Creveling mother and father Johannes and Eva Kriebeling... who traveled from Germany ... between 1743 and 1745. The name was anglicized to Creveling... their farm... as far as you can see in all directions... stayed in the family until 1922 when it was sold to the Hagaman family.
A special thanks to Col. Louis G. Creveling for his dedicated research and financial support... His son Harris J. Creveling... and Terry Tersigni a descendant of Creveling and Hagaman whose work made this cemetery restoration possible.
There was a dedication in July 2007 and 100 descendants from all over the country attended!
The burial enclosure is accessible via Hull's Lane which connects to the westbound lane of the highway. The burying ground can be reached from Hull's Lane by traveling north on that road for about 1/4 mile. Upon reaching the small farmhouse at the top of the hill, the family burial plot is located about 200 yards west. One must walk from that point in order to reach the burying grounds. PLEASE ASK PERMISSION BEFORE ENTERING THE BURYING GROUND LOCATION.

Garrison-Tharp Cemetery [ck]

Vliet Family Burial Ground
Amidst private property on the former Vliet Farm are the historical Vliet family burial plots; there is NO PUBLIC ACCESS route to the cemetery.
The Vliet Family cemetery is a rare surviving example of a colonial American frontier burial plot established prior to the American Revolution. There were no community cemeteries in the region until after 1795, at the earliest.
The Vliet family name and history is well documented in history books, county historical quarterly’s, state and county records, and by the Daughters of the American Revolution, to name a few. To wit, in the Somerset County Historical Quarterly, 1918, Vol. 7, Page 152 and 153, under DEPARTMENT OF NOTES AND QUERIES: “It seems that the Captain Daniel Vliet referred to was a Captain in the Revolution, having also five of his sons in the service. This makes almost as a unique a record in this respect as that of the family of Rev. James McCrea, as noted on another page; and as the line of Daniel, begun in Somerset, developed into a number of the best known families in Hunterdon and present Warren (formerly Sussex) county…..”
Captain Daniel Vliet (1726-1810), a third generation Dutch Colonial American dating to 1662 in Flatbush, Long Island, New York, settled on 500 acres purchased from Abner Haines of Bergen County, in 1752.
Vliet had seven children who grew to adulthood; only one of the seven is buried here: Major General of Militia Garret Vliet (1762-1839). The last documented burial was in 1858. The known graves in the burial grounds are of Capt. Daniel and his wife Charity, Major General Garret and his wife Lydia, Garret's son William's wife Rebecca, and Garret's spinster daughter Mary.
Garret inherited the farmstead according to his father Daniel's Will dated 1804, probated in 1810. Garret unveiled the burial plot in his Will dated 1834 when he said, "Seventhly, it is further my will that the grave yard fence be put up in a proper manner and upright marble head and foot stones for the graves of my Father, Mother, Wife, and Myself be done and purchased at the expense of my estate." It is unknown whether-or-not the previously mentioned fence was made of wooden rail or stone.
Subsequently, in 1922, the Vliet family heirs' Jacob Vliet Willever and Anna Cora Vliet Dawes England built the current stone and mortar walled enclosure. (Jacob V. Willever owned all of the original Vliet farmstead and the two adjacent [former Willever] farms on what is now Vliet Farm Road. Anna C. England was the Regent for the Peggy (Vliet) Warne Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution at that time. Jacob and Anna were of the fourth generation after Captain Daniel Vliet.)
Captain Daniel served in both the Sussex and Hunterdon County militias. The Capt. Daniel Vliet Chapter of the DAR honors Daniel's service. His six sons and daughter also served, she on the home front administering medical needs. The Peggy Warne Chapter of the DAR honors Margaret "Peggy" Vliet Warne's service.

Villages & Hamlets

Amwell/Dawlis Mills [see Historic District]
In 1727, William Dawlis built the first grist mill in the area. Over the years this became the entirely self-sufficient town known as Amwell. It had seven different mills, an applejack distillery, a wheelwright shop, a cooper shop, a store and a tavern. It was proably the biggest town in East Amwell prior to the Amercian Revolution. [?] It predated the village of Ringoes [??], but later declined when the road system favored the intersection of the two major early trails at Ringoes.

John Ringo's Tavern Site
John Ringo arrived here in 1720. No one knows the exact location of the log cabin he built. Ringo's tavern of Revolutionary War fame was built here in c.1737 by Phillip Ringo, a nephew of the first John Ringo. Then Philip's son, John Ringo was the person who made it famous as a meeting place for the Sons of Liberty during the Revolutionary War.
Nathan Price ran the tavern between 1797-99. In 1814 Solomon Landis purchased the tavern from his brother; then lost it to a sherrif's sale in 1818. Isaac Lowe purchased and operated it until the 1830s. It burned to the ground in 1840. The house there now was built several years after that tragic fire.
An 1795 map shows "Ringo's T." south [?] of the two intersecting roads.

FRANKLIN - 1845
Formed from Kingwood Township in April 1845.

Franklin Township

Allen's Corner/s
Originally called Runyan's Corner or Hugh Runyan's for one of the earliest land owners in the area. It had acquired its present name by 1867 in honor of Captain John Allen, a stone mason who settled in the area.

Cherryville
A tavern was recorded here in 1761. As early as 1830, it was called "Dogtown", apparently for the Dogtown Tavern located there. By 1834 it had become a flourishing settlement and was renamed, this time for the Cherry family who owned most of the land in the area.

Grandin
Located on the border of Union & Franklin Townships. Named for the French Huguenot Grandin family that settled the area about 1760. The Grandins operated a tavern and milling business. It was a stop of the Easton & Amboy Railroad and was known for awhile as Grandin Station.

Kingtown
Members of the King family operated grist and oil mills which gave rise to the names 'Kings Mills' and 'Kings' for the area until the present name dominated. [HCPN]

Littleton [locate]
Named for the Little family which settled the area.

Locust Grove [locate exactly]

Oak Grove

Pittstown [see Historic District]
This settlement was first called "Hoff's", "Hoff's Forge", or "Hoff's Mills" for Charles Hoff who kept a store here by 1758. In some documents it was referred to as "Pitts Town Mills" and even "Patchtown". During the Revolution, the name was changed to Pittstown in honor of William Pitt, the British statesman. [HCPN]

[Pittstown] Rockhill - 1748
This fulling and grist mill was owned by Edward Rockhill.
[exact location unknown]

Pittstown Mill / Furman's Mill - 1778
This stone grist mill was built by Moore Furman (1728-1808) in 1778 specifically for military purposes. Furman was deputy quartermaster general of provisions for the Continental Army in New Jersey. In addition to grinding grain to feed the soldiers encamped at various New Jersey locations, Furman provided men, horses, wood, and other supplies for General George Washington.
Provisions were stored in and around Pittstown, and on farms in the nearby village of Quakertown. Furman owned most of the property in Pittstown, and had his own dwelling house in the village as well, bringing his family from Trenton to live here for safety during the course of the war. He named the village Pittstown in honor of William Pitt, Earl of Chatham, the British statesman who fought in favor of the Colonies.
This mill was subsequently used for fulling. For 83 yers it was run by the Bodine Family as a lumber company with hardware, feed, and seed.
The Mill is part of the Pittstown Historic District listed on the State and National Registers, and has a Hunterdon County Cultural & Heritage Commission plaque. Today, the mill is a commercial building housing an animal feed store and other enterprises.

Places

Native American Sites

Indian Fields
There used to be three old fields called "Indian Fields". Probably the site of a village, or favorite spot for councils. Early settlers found a number of unburied skulls lying near the bottom of Gravel Hill, and there was local lore that said there was a battle here between two tribes.

Old Burying Ground
Burying Ground depicted in the History of Hunterdon and Somerset Counties, New Jersey, dating from the Revolution, including a stone with the family name Yamans, which no longer exists in the township.

Indian Camp Sites and Burial Grounds
In a survey dated March 30, 1710, for Thomas Byerly, a boundary line was mentioned going through an extensive Indian "burying-place".
As of the late 1800s it was already a memory, having been plowed over through the years, but old timers remembered seeing actual headstones of red shale stone. This particular burying ground was felt to be one of importance for the native residents of a large portion of the county.

Indian Burial Grounds

Indian Village

Four Square Style School
Often confused with the eight-square schoolhouse replaced by the Holland School on Church Road, this structure had only four sides.

Spring Mills School
A small log house about 300 yards from the present building was the first schoolhouse in the district. The year of its contruction is unknown, but was believed to be around the Revolution. The present structure was built in 1875.

Holland School
There were four different schools on this spot; the first was a log structure dating to the Revolution that stood near the present structure, which was built in 1862.

McCullogh School

Millersville School
One of the smallest schoolhouses in the township, the first structure built around 1811, of logs. Current structure built around 1856.

Hawk School
First school was built in 1825, a log structure about half a mile from the present building. The current structure was built in 1850.

Mount Joy School (needs constr date)

Ferries

Quinn's Ferry
This ferry operated between Durham Township, PA and Holland Township. The New Jersey terminus was at Quinn's mill just south of the Durham Rapids. This was a private ferry and operated only during the canal navigation season. When Quinn's mill burned in 1849, the ferry was abandoned. [HCPN]

Shenk's or Shank's Ferry / Riegelsville Ferry
A ferry operated between the two towns of Riegelsville on opposite sides of the Delaware River. The name "Shenk's/Shank's Ferry" was sometimes used before 1806 [actually dating to colonial times by one source] for the owner of the ferry on the PA side. Subsequently, Benjamin Riegel bought the ferry from Shenk and the NJ side of the river permanently became Riegelsville. The ferry was replaced by a bridge first built there in 1837. [HCPN]

Stillwell's/Brink's Ferry
Before 1800 it was called Stillwell's Ferry and a tavern was also located there along with a good eddy for the log rafts to land.

18thC houses

Murfin-Hoff Plantation - early 1700s
c. 1712 - land surveyed / "manor house" built - mid 1740s
This property was first surveyed c.1703-1712. It accessed from a lane off of Oak Summit Rd. The property line went 1/10 mile west of what is now Route 519.
From 1745-47 the original “manor house” was built, taking three years to complete. Eventually, along with other outbuildings, a still was added to the property. This building caught fire and in the process burned down the manor house. The stone foundation of the house remained and at the end of Prohibition a second house was built.
During the Revolutionary War, the Continental Army ocupied the farm for a brief period while transferring English & Hessian prisoners to the South.
According to 18thC accounts, the prisoners were housed in a "dilapidated church" [presumably the original log church south of the cemetery]. They were served pork & sauerkraut for dinner by their German hosts. They were also given stockings because they had no shoes.

New Hampton Historic District

New Hampton
For thousands of years, this was the site of a large population of Indians. Prior to the Revolutionary War, the village contained a gristmill and tavern. It had a post office as early as 1790.
In 1784 Major Henry Dusenbery settled in New Hampton. As a merchant and property investor, he acquired a gristmill, tavern, tannery, storehouse, distillery, store, and blacksmith as well as property and houses, including his large stone "mansion house". He was responsible for much of New Hampton's growth during that time.
In the 1860s, with the anticipation of the railroad passing through New Hampton, two hotels [the Union and the American] were built. However, the railroad chose Hampton Junction (now Hampton) to locate the rail lines, thus slowing activity and growth in New Hampton.
[check this]
Formerly Johnsons Mills. Settled around several early taverns [Mackey's / McCrum's].

Grove Farm - 'Shipley' [ck loca]
Site of James Parker's Farm.
Between Kingtown Rd. & Loyalist Way near Route 513.
Bethlehem Township during the Revolutionary War - now Union Township
James Parker (1725-1797) had loyalist connections and sympathies during the Revolutionary War. He was an agent for the East Jersey proprietors and Sir Robert Barker’s properties. He was a lawyer and a councillor under Governor William Franklin from 1764 to 1775, as well as mayor of Perth Amboy in 1771. Parker married Gertrude Skinner, sister of Courtland Skinner, the infamous organizer of Skinner’s Brigade of Loyalists.
James Parker appeared to remain neutral during the War, and he brought his family from the east side of Jersey to “Shipley,” where they remained until the end of the war. However, in November of 1777, Parker was taken by the Patriots as a loyalist hostage to ensure the safety of patriot captives, but was allowed to return to his family. His own diary shows his loyalist leanings, for in December 1778, he briefly quartered British and Hessian troops at Shipley that were on the march to Virginia for the southern campaign.
Although Parker’s house no longer exists, part of the Shipley farm property is a housing development today, with the lead-in road named Loyalist Way in his honor. The site has a township plaque commemorating its importance.

Reynolds-Van Syckle Tavern
Corner of Van Syckles and Charlestown Roads
Union Township, Hunterdon County
[It was Bethlehem Township during the Revolutionary War.]
This stone tavern was built c1763 by David Reynolds for William Allen and Joseph Turner, Philadelphia merchants who owned the nearby Union Forge. Reynolds ran the tavern and made counterfeit British currency.
“At a Town-Meeting held at the house of David Reynolds, in the township of Bethlehem, on the 11th March, 1766, it was agreed and concluded upon that, agreeable to a request made by the Sons of Liberty of Lower Hunterdon, that a number not exceeding three men should be chosen in this Township, who should have full power to represent the inhabitants thereof, and meet their Brethren at the house of John Ringoes, on this day sennight [the space of seven nights and days or a week], when the Town unanimously chose Mr. John Rockhill, David Reynolds, and Abraham Bonnell...” (Snells p.459)
Local legend claims Reynolds was caught in the tavern and hung by British soldiers on the property. However, the truth is that Reynolds ran the tavern until 1768 when, in debt and with warrants for his arrest, he fled to Hackettstown where he was caught, convicted of counterfeiting, and executed five years later in Morristown.
Today it is a private residence.

WEST AMWELL - 1846
Formed from old Amwell as Amwell Township in April 1838, then split into East & West Amwell in 1846..

West Amwell

Drake's Hill [locate exactly]
Highest point in Hunterdon County.

Washington's Rock
Also called 'Pinnacle Rock'. During the Revolution, an observation point used by Washington's Army for making certain that all boards which had been gathered behind Malta Island in the Delaware could not be seen by the British if they reconnoitered from the same vantage point.
Washington picked a stone ledge on Goat Hill above Lambertville which overlooked a wide expanse of the Delaware River Valley as that lookout point and also to assess the movement of British and Hessian troops.
Today the site is well preserved as part of the George Washinton Scout Reservation.

Mt. Airy [see Historic District]
This village was a stagecoach stop on the Old York Road where Samuel Holcombe's store still stands. Tradition holds that is was built in the mid 1700s as a common storehouse for local farmers until transportation to distant markets could be arranged.

Mt. Airy Station [locate]
This was a station of the Flemington Railroad located about 1.5 miles from Mt. Airy.

New Market / Linvale
As early as 1788, this settlement was known as New Market. The name was changed to Linvale in the 1890s.

Rocktown - see Historic District
By 1826 it had acquired this name from the rock-filled soil in the area.

Amwell
Shown on 1795 & 1811 maps - "Amwell" & "Amwell MgH" [up from "Corriel's Ferry"] This is often confused with the village of old 'Amwell' which was located off of what is now Route 31 south of Ringoes [later known as Dawlis Mills - some buildings remain]. Amwell Meeting House was in Mt. Airy.
Shown on 1869 map - between the road and the railroad.

Colonial Road & Bridges

Old York Rd.
The New Jersey section of Old York Rd. was built in 1764. It follows the present-day Route 179, connecting neighboring points of Lambertville and Ringoes. It follows closely the route of an Indian Trail between more distant points in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. It was the route used by the Swift Sure Stage Line (1765-1854) and, although it was originally a tollroad, it became a "free road" after 1851.
Mt. Airy was a key place on that earliest route from the Delaware to the Raritan River.
