Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Burlington and Mercer Counties, New Jersey, With Biographical Sketches of Many of Their Pioneers and Prominent Men There is no better mode of gathering material for the history of a State than by the prep aration and publication of the history of its several counties. The publishers who are engaged in such work ought to be encouraged in their arduous and expensive labors. The county of Mercer, which has been organized as such only forty-five years, would afford a very limited Scope to its historian if he were to confine his researches to such period. He would hardly do justice to his work unless he runs back to the original settlement of the several townships within the territorial boundaries of the new county, and describes the progress they have made in all the departments of civilization. In doing this he will sometimes repeat what the histories of the original counties contain, while for some historic matter, when the narrative cannot well be divided, he may wisely refer the reader to those histories.

Download or read book Mansfield Township Burlington County written by and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mansfield Township was established as a constabulary in 1688 and became incorporated in 1798. It is one of the oldest townships in Burlington County. Made up of one town, Columbus, and the four villages of Hedding, Kinkora, Georgetown, and Mansfield Square, the township continues to retain the rural, agricultural landscape that its first settlers witnessed. Mansfield Township has had a number of notable residents, from Prince Lucian Murat, nephew of Napoleon Bonaparte, to Thomas Larzelere, an architect who was instrumental in designing plans for the Capitol Building in Washington, D.C. The vintage images in Mansfield Township, Burlington County bring to life the history of the township, from the days when weary travelers stopped for refreshment at the Columbus Inne to the modern, technologically driven community that the township is today.

Book excerpt: Few communities in the United States can boast of a history as long and as rich as Burlington. Situated on the Delaware River between Camden and Trenton, Burlington was settled in 1677 by English Quakers and named for Burlington, England. The city was incorporated in 1784 and soon became a center for the manufacture of cast-iron products, clothing, and footwear.Burlington was the capital of the province of West Jersey from 1681 to 1702, and one of the capitals of the United East and West Jersey from 1702 to 1790. In 1726, Benjamin Franklin printed the first Colonial money in Burlington, and the state's first constitution was signed here in July 1776. The city has been home to numerous historical figures, including President Ulysses S. Grant, Captain James Lawrence, and James Fenimore Cooper. Burlington traces the city's history from a Quaker community to its prominence as the first Burlington County seat and as a manufacturing center served by railroad and shipping lines. The amusement park on Burlington Island, the construction of the Burlington-Bristol Bridge, the Library Company of Burlington, and the Metropolitan Inn are among the many featured landmarks.
