<b>MarkerDescription:</b> This station was built by the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad in 1904. It is a superb example of Prairie style architecture. Characterized by simple, clean lines, the brick and stone structure stands as a representation of the modern era that brought steam power, greater industrialization, and rapid transportation to Boonton and other small towns throughout America. In Boonton the railroad carried not only passengers but also products produced by the local iron industry as well as the coal used to fuel that industry.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Dr. Taylor resided and practiced medicine here. The Colonial Revival design of his home was greatly influenced by the Hudson River Dutch-Georgian school of architecture and contrasts to the more ostentatious styles of the high Victorian era. Purchased by the town of Boonton in 1921 as a memorial to WWI veterans, Dr. Taylor’s house served as the Town Hall until 1965, and is now the headquarters of the American Legion Post 124 and the Boonton Historical Society.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Built in 1854, the Garrett Rickards House is one of two octagonal houses built on Cornelia Street. Both dwellings were constructed of concrete slag from the Boonton Iron Works and exemplify the unique octagonal architecture. The octagonal design was advocated by Orson Squire Fowler, New York social reformer, phrenologist, author and architect. He authored A Home for All, or the Gravel Wall and Octagon Mode of Building to promote the building of octagonal-shaped structures for better utilization of space and natural light.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Adam Miller, Jr. built the small original 1785 wing of this house on land inherited by his wife, Anna Demouth. John Decker purchased the property in 1828 and greatly expanded the house in 1834. The Kincaid family acquired the farmstead through marriage, and it remained in the family until the death in 2000 of Oscar Kincaid, a longtime township committeeman and former mayor. Kincaid, a former member of the Morris County Agricultural Development Board, promoted farmland preservation throughout the county. The dwelling, now owned by the Historical Society of Boonton Township, is known as the Oscar A. Kincaid Home of History.

The railroad spurred economic growth in the community. Freight trains brought raw materials destined for local mills and left with finished products headed to market. Passenger trains brought vacationers who owned lakefront homes in the surrounding hills. Train service continued until 1966. The borough now owns the station, which has become the Butler Museum.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Morris County, incorporated in 1739 by Colonel Lewis Morris, governor of the province of New Jersey, is rich in history. County seat Morristown was the site of two Revolutionary War encampments for George Washington and the Continental Army during the winters of 1777 and 1779-1780. During the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the county was one of the nation’s major iron-producing centers, and by the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries it was renowned for technological developments. The Morris Canal was conceived by George Macculloch of Morristown. Also in Morristown, Stephen Vail designed and built the engine of the “Savannah,” the first steamship to cross the Atlantic, in 1819. Morse code and the telegraph were invented at Speedwell Iron Works by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail. A cousin to the Speedwell Vail’s, Theodore Vail, the first president of the Bell Telephone Company, laid the foundation for what would become AT&T. Denville-based Reaction Motors Inc. designed the propulsion system for the Bell X-1 in 1941; on October 14, 1947, the Bell X-1 became the first aircraft to break the sound barrier. Morris County has also made significant contributions in the social and artistic arenas as well. Beginning in the eighteenth century, Morris County’s women have played active roles in the local and national communities by participating in war efforts, establishing charitable institutions, actively participating in the political arena, and demonstrating for suffrage. The Seeing Eye, the first American guide dog school, has been located in Morristown since 1930. In the early twentieth century, Gustav Stickley chose Parsippany for his furniture and housing design factory. His Craftsman style revolutionized the interior and exterior designs of American homes. Authors and artists as diverse as Dorothy Parker, John Reed, Joyce Kilmer, and Thomas Nast called the county home at one time or another.<br>

The neighborhood eventually became known as Union Hill. When the schoolhouse was destroyed by arson in 1860 the community mobilized to construct the present structure, which remained open until 1908, when the third [Third?] Union School opened across the street.

Green was the first New Jerseyan to advocate separation from Great Britain and chaired the committee that drafted New Jersey’s first constitution.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Henry S. Hoyt, wealthy heir of New York merchant and investor Gould Hoyt, built this Gothic Revival house on land purchased from Richard Kemble, the son of prominent loyalist Peter Kemble, in 1840. In 1885 David H. McAlpin, a tobacco manufacturing, banking, real estate, insurance, and natural gas production magnate, bought the 300-acre estate and named it Glen Alpin. His son Charles inherited the estate and deeded a large portion of it to the federal government to create the Morristown National Park. Glen Alpin is considered one of the finest and best preserved Gothic Revival structures in New Jersey.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The pre-Revolutionary Petersburg Forge once operated at this site. A community of farmers later settled here. In 1915 Alfred T. Ringling purchased the entire village of Petersburg and had it completely leveled. On the property he built this palatial cobblestone-faced classical revival mansion that included two large ballrooms and a pipe organ. Ringling auditioned circus acts in the mansion and kept animals and circus equipment in the outbuildings. He stayed here for a short time, dying unexpectedly in 1919 at age 56. His widow and son sold the property a few years later. Today the mansion houses a friary of Capuchin Franciscans originally from Poland.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> American Indians and white settlers alike benefited from the butternut tree (also known as white walnut). From the nuts and sap they derived oil, nut flour, nut butter, and sugar; from the bark and hulls they made medicinal preparations for treating dysentery, fungus infections, and rheumatism; from the tree’s beautiful wood they crafted furniture. Kinnelon’s butternut tree is one of the oldest and largest known tree of its kind in New Jersey. It still stands on the site of eighteenth-century Mead Farm in Kinnelon.

Ludlow participated in the battles of Three Rivers, Long Island, and Germantown. Later he served as a Morris County judge. In 1924 the Missionary Servants of the Most Blessed Trinity, a religious order founded by Thomas Judge, acquired the structure, where they operated a boys’ school. Known today as Trinity House, it functions as a retreat center as well as a meeting place for Catholic young adults. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Village of Stirling was formed in 1871 when The Mutual Life Insurance Company of New York developed this area when the railroad came through. The company planned and built the village, which included a factory that it leased to a button manufacturer. In 1886 the factory became a silk mill, operated by French émigré Claude Chaffanjon, where the majority of the workers were French. Chaffanjon donated land for a public school and Catholic church. Successive owners hired immigrants from Germany, Italy, Armenia, and Poland. When the demand for silk fell, the mill was sold in 1938 to a company that made airplane parts during World War II. Other businesses occupied the factory until it burned in 1974. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Madison’s long established African-American community originally met in the Presbyterian Church, but by 1840 they had formed a separate religious community that met in the home of Jacob Davis, a former slave. Davis conveyed a portion of his property to several associates, who formed Madison’s earliest known Black church, the African Union. This was succeeded in 1855 by the African Methodist Episcopal Church, located at the present site and rebuilt in 1905. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

Two subsequent churches burned. The present edifice, designed by Aaron Hudson and constructed in 1860, was inspired by the neo-classicism of seventeenth-century English architect Christopher Wren who influenced the designs of many colonial New England churches. The Hilltop Church, a focal point of the village, is considered Mendham’s finest architectural gem.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> This beautiful example of vernacular mill architecture was built by John Nesbitt circa 1848. Thomas Loughlin purchased the property around 1908 and modified it for the production of “Tiger” applejack. The mill is one of many that once flourished in Mendham Township, where apples and peaches, used in making liquor, were a major cash crop. The distillery continued its operation until Prohibition, remaining the last of Mendham’s many cider mills. It is now owned by Mendham Township. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Jonathan Logan operated a gristmill that supplied food to Washington’s army during the Jockey Hollow encampment. His son-in-law, John Ralston, purchased the mill and occupied the nearby manor house from 1786 to 1819. Ralston also operated the general store. Ralston encouraged the establishment of forges, wagon works, fulling and woolen mills, and other water-powered operations. In so doing, he helped establish Mendham Township as a prosperous industrial area. The general store served as a post office from 1892 to 1941 and is now the home of the Ralston Historical Association and is open to visitors on Sunday afternoons from June through October.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> This simple frame school building typifies the nineteenth-century rural school. Built on land conveyed by Mary Ann Ralston Nesbitt and Eliza Ralston Arrowsmith, the one-room school held eight grades and remained open until 1928 when its sixteen students transferred to Mendham Borough School. The Schiff Scout Reservation remodeled the building after acquiring it in 1941. Further renovations were made in the 1980s. The schoolhouse is now a private home.

His sister-in-law, Bridget Smith, bought this house nine years after her husband Andrew died in an iron-mine related accident. She lived in half the house with her two children, while renting the other half to another Irish mining widow and her six children. It is the last intact example of nineteenth-century iron miners' housing in the area. The house is owned by the township and is maintained by the Ferromonte Historical Society of Mine Hill.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Native Americans living near this site called the surrounding area Succasuny (now Succasunna) meaning “place of the black stone.” The black stone—iron ore—attracted white settlers. Jonathan Dickerson, father of Governor Mahlon Dickerson, acquired title to this land in 1779. The tract was worked under a system of forge rights until 1807. According to some historians, the mine, under previous owners, had operated since 1710, making it the oldest iron mine in the United States. (Caution! Flooded mine shaft openings make the surrounding terrain very dangerous. Visitors are highly discouraged from exploring this area.) Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

General Revere was court-martialed for having taken controversial actions at the Civil War battle of Chancellorsville. He was later exonerated by President Lincoln, and honored by Congress. Charles Foster, a New York broker, purchased the house in 1881. His daughter Caroline, who ran the farm after her father’s death, donated the property in 1973 to the Morris County Park Commission, which maintains the site as a museum and living history farm.

Between 1787 and 1788, Walter Mould, under state contract, minted horsehead pennies on this site at “Solitude,” the home of Associate New Jersey Supreme Court Justice John Cleves Symmes. A mine on Symmes’s property provided a source of copper. Following the mint’s financial failure, Mould and Symmes left for Ohio, taking the minting equipment with them. Mould died along the way and “Solitude” was sold. The new owner opened the house to the public, renaming it “Wheatsheaf Inn.” Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

Cutler acquired the house through marriage and bequeathed it to his son Augustus. As a state senator from 1872 to 1874, Augustus Cutler became the first public figure to call for racial integration of schools and secured the passage of the state’s first civil rights bill. He also fought the efforts of the railroads to control public lands. As a member of Congress from 1875 to 1879, he introduced the first bill to create a U.S. Department of Agriculture. Today Augustus Cutler is recognized as the father of the free school system. His home is now a Montessori School.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> George Macculloch is best remembered as the father of the Morris Canal, an engineering marvel and vital lifeline of Morris County’s iron industry. He built this stately Federal style house in sections from 1810 to 1814, including the west wing where he ran a boys' Latin school with the assistance of his wife Louisa. They were instrumental in founding St. Peter's Church in Morristown. Louisa was active in many local charities, including the Female Charitable Aid Society, which is still in operation as Family Services of Morris County. George was also interested in crops and crop production. The first recorded cultivated tomato in New Jersey was grown in the garden at Macculloch Hall. In 1949 the Honorable W. Parsons Todd acquired the house. Mr. Todd, a distinguished philanthropist and former mayor of Morristown, restored the mansion and gardens and opened them to the public. Today Macculloch Hall is a museum featuring permanent and changing exhibits relating to history and the arts.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The Morristown Green is the center of the town’s historic district and is the site of Morris County’s two earliest courthouses. As early as 1715, animals grazed at this time-honored place where people have often gathered to socialize, attend performances, or participate in public events—which, until 1833, included public executions by hanging. The land was purchased from the Presbyterian Church in 1816 and is owned and has been administered by the Trustees of the Morristown Green.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Monsieur Louis Sansay built this Federal style house after immigrating to Morristown from Santo Domingo after the French Revolution. With his fortune gone, he made a living as a dancing instructor. On 14 July 1825 Sansay and prominent men of Morristown hosted a dinner here honoring General Lafayette during his return visit to America. Sansay’s business declined after local ministers began preaching against “the sin of dancing.” Discouraged, he quietly left town, traveling to Elizabeth, where his fate remains unknown. In 1872, General Joseph Warren Revere bought the Sansay House and resided there until he died in 1880.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The Morris Canal helped save the iron industry in Morris County by linking the iron-producing highlands with major ports and waterways. At Lake Hopatcong the Morris Canal reached its highest level—914 feet above sea level. The lake provided the canal with one of its main sources of water. The lock tender who lived here operated Lock No. 67 through which boats entered and left on a feeder connecting the lake with the main canal at Landing. Today the Lake Hopatcong Historical Museum occupies the lock tender’s house. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Lake Rogerene has been a lake community since 1925. The former Mountain Pond was renamed to honor Rogerene Baptists who came to Roxbury in 1734 from Connecticut, where they had been persecuted for following the teachings of their founder, John Rogers. The pacifist Rogerenes had no clergy and built no churches. Their rejection of all formalized religious practices and their habit of working on Sundays often annoyed other Christians. Most of the Rogerenes in Morris County had become members of other denominations by the late eighteenth century. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> This village was named after the Bartley family who built forges and mills in the early nineteenth century. A descendant, William Bartley, established the Wm. Bartley & Sons Foundry in 1861 along the South Branch of the Raritan River. The foundry manufactured farm machinery, steam engines, and turbines. Occasionally it also produced steel truss bridges for county roads. By 1875, Bartleyville included a school, post office, general store, and workers’ housing. The railroad, which still runs through this area, gave the foundry and local farmers access to wide markets. An eclectic Victorian house owned by Augustus Bartley still stands.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> This pre-Rvolutionary village, situated in an area where farms, mills, and mines once operated, attained its greatest prosperity in the nineteenth century. A circa 1850 stone mill (now a private home) still stands. Following the Civil War, the village became a railroad depot for the shipment of iron, firesand used in making fireplace bricks, and agricultural products. Dairy production continued into the twentieth century. A creamery built in 1909 provided the first pasteurization of locally produced milk.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Settlers first arrived in the area in the mid-eighteenth century to farm the land or mine iron. As early as 1768, Baptists and Presbyterians shared a log church on property donated by James Heaton. The 1850s churches stand on either side of the Mount Olive Academy, which was constructed in 1837 after an 1820 stone school on the same site collapsed. The Academy functioned as a public school for many years. Residents of the village included the Salmon and Stephens families, who owned substantial interests in the iron mines during the early nineteenth century. The Presbyterian Church is now a private home. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The original stone section of this house may pre-date its use as a tavern during the nineteenth century on the Morris and Sussex Turnpike. The Allen family owned this property between 1881 and 1944. Hugh Allen was a prominent public works contractor and built many roads. While under contract to the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad, Allen constructed rail lines in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. He also built and operated railroad-owned coal docks at Port Morris along the Morris Canal. The Allens prompted Netcong’s development through the subdivision of Allen Hill into smaller building lots.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The Morris Canal and Banking Company created Lake Musconetcong in 1846 as the Morris Canal’s Stanhope Reservoir. The lake supplied water that filled the canal and powered local industries. Mules treading an earthen causeway across the lake pulled boats loaded with coal, iron ore, or freight along a channel in the lake bed. Use of the lake for industrial purposes waned during the early 20th century. Morris County Heritage Commission, New Jersey Register of Historic Places, National Register of Historic Places<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The self-contained artisan community of Craftsman Farms was conceived by Gustav Stickley, designer of Mission-style furniture and leader in the arts and crafts movement in America between 1898 and 1915. Stickley's home, the Log House, was originally intended as a community center. Built of chestnut logs and fieldstone in a natural setting, the structure exemplifies Stickley’s aesthetics based on the harmony of architecture and nature. Today Craftsman Farms is a National Historic Landmark and the Stickley Museum is open to the public.

The house was selected because it gave Livingston easy access to Morristown yet was isolated from the British forces. As a result, he managed to elude capture by Tory sympathizers on at least one occasion.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Artifacts found at this site provide evidence of human habitation between 1250 B.C. and 1570 A.D. Archeologists suspect the Leni-Lenape Indians used the natural rock formation as a hunting and butchering station. The site may also have had some astronomical significance. Some scholars suggest the petroglyphs of animals and other figures were etched upon these rocks between 500 B.C. and 500 A.D. and might represent star patterns. The Rockhouse has one of the few petroglyph markings found in New Jersey. The township owns and maintains the property surrounding this significant landmark. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The congregation that built this church was once part of a Reformed Dutch church organized in 1736 in Wayne Township. When a split occurred between members over the validity of ordaining of ministers outside of Holland, those who accepted American ordination came here. Influenced by noted seventeenth-century neo-classical architect Christopher Wren, the 1771 church reflects the growing sophistication of Pequannock’s prosperous farming population. A fire gutted the structure in 1937, leaving only the walls. However, the church was rebuilt according to the original design and remains one of the most historically significant houses of worship in Morris County.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The Religious Society of Friends, known as Quakers, built the oldest standing house of worship in Morris County using pegged construction. The Quakers were pacifists who refused military service during the Revolution. For this they had to pay monthly fines or have their property confiscated. The Quakers played an important role in the abolitionist movement during the nineteenth century. The congregation became inactive in 1865, but in 1955 the meeting was reorganized, and the Friends continued to meet for worship here.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The first known commercial operation at this site was a gristmill built before the Revolution. By 1806, a sawmill was established here along with a carding and fulling mill, where workers cleaned and thickened textiles. Peter Jackson owned the property in the early 1800s and added a store. The buildings eventually burned. In 1842 new owners rebuilt the site as a gristmill. Joseph Slater purchased it in 1849 and converted it into a woolen factory. He subsequently made felt for Stetson hats here, and his son continued the business into the twentieth century.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Stephen Jackson, who was a captain in George Washington’s life guards, built the original eighteenth-century wing of this house. Washington reportedly visited Jackson here while traveling to Mount Hope. This structure was removed in 1867 from the remaining gambrel-roofed Federal style wing built in 1816 by Stephen’s son, Colonel Joseph Jackson as an addition. Both Jacksons succeeded in business. Through land acquisition and investments Stephen controlled most of the town when he died. Joseph made his fortune in the iron industry and became known as the “Iron King” of Morris County. Today the Jackson house is a convent affiliated with Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

General William Winds (1727-1789), veteran of the French and Indian Wars and the Revolutionary War, is buried in the church cemetery. The present Gothic Revival structure, built in 1832, originally overlooked the Morris Canal. Between 1868 and 1887 the cemetery was realigned from a grid to a curvilinear, park-like design. A Civil War monument commemorates the 77 Rockaway men who lost their lives during the war. Today the church remains a main focal point of the borough. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

During the eighteenth century, it was also the site of the Mt. Hope iron works. A major explosion devastated the base in 1926. At the time of the attack on Pearl Harbor, Picatinny was the only plant that could produce large caliber ammunition. The arsenal played a major role in supplying munitions during World War II. Since 1977, Picatinny arsenal has been a major armament research and development center. Morris County Heritage Commission<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The earliest section of this house was built by Lewis Carey in 1790 and an addition was complete by 1880. When the Central Railroad of New Jersey came through Roxbury in 1876, a stop was established on this property. Carey’s grandson William used the railroad to ship firesand, used in the production of bricks, and kaolin, a clay from which porcelain was made that was dug on his land. The railroad built a 12’ by 16’ wooden station here in 1893. Residents used the station until 1932, when passenger operations ceased. Freight trains still run on the tracks today.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> The original stone portion of this house, with its two-foot-deep wells and massive cooking fireplace, was built by young Lewis Carey. Lewis’s property was acquired from his father Daniel and extended to Lake Hopatcong. During Washington’s Morristown encampment of 1777, soldiers afflicted with smallpox stayed here to relieve the overcrowding of patients being cared for at the Presbyterian Church. Many victims were buried on the surrounding hillside. Additions to the house were made in the 1930s and 1980s. Today the house is a private residence known as Stone House Farm.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> This pre-Revolutionary saltbox was named after the family of Silas and Harriet Riggs, known to have lived here since the early 1800s. Silas, a tanner, supplied local mines with leather pouches used to transport iron ore. He also supervised construction of part of the Morris Canal and oversaw the operation of three barges. His son Albert ran the nearby canal store in the 1830s. To save the house from being demolished in 1962 when Route 10 was being constructed, the Roxbury Township Historical Society acquired the house and had it moved here from its original location across the highway. The house serves as the meeting place of the Roxbury Township Historical Society and is open to the public.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Victory Gardens was a federal housing project for local defense workers employed at Picatinny Arsenal and other nearby defense-related industries during World War II. The youngest and smallest municipality in Morris County, it was incorporated in 1951 after it separated from Randolph. Victory Gardens, like the nineteenth-century company towns that preceded it, was created to encourage efficiency and productivity by providing affordable housing. The Borough has curvilinear street patterns and a legacy of romantic nineteenth century landscape design and is characteristic of many New Jersey suburbs built from the late 1920s to the present.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> German settlers established farms in this region as early as 1740. The prevalence of stone buildings reflects the German influence throughout the area. The ruins of the Old Stone Union Church recall the pastorate of Reverend Melchior Muhlenberg, known as the father of Lutheranism in America. Rev. Muhlenberg organized the German Valley congregation. His eldest son, the Reverend Peter Gabriel Muhlenberg, also served as pastor here and served as a major general in the Continental Army. The ruins are one of many sites in the German Valley Historic District. German Valley was renamed Long Valley at the onset of World War I.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Scattered iron mines and forges existed here throughout the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. When Robert Ford Oram, a Cornish-born mine supervisor, came to this area, originally known as Irondale, he further developed the iron industry by taking full advantage of the transportation routes that converged here—namely the Morris Canal and the Morris and Essex Railroad. He helped develop the rural, sparsely settled hinterland into a canal port and train depot that grew into a thriving multi-ethnic community including Irish, Welsh, Cornish, and Hungarian immigrants. In 1902 the borough renamed itself Wharton after Pennsylvania iron magnate Joseph Wharton, who purchased the Port Oram furnace in 1881 and transformed it into New Jersey’s largest and most modern ironworks.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Master builder Ira J. Lindsley designed and constructed this Victorian farmhouse for Edwin Ford, a descendant of John Ford, one of the township’s original settlers and owner of this property. The house replaced an earlier structure built by Samuel Ford, Edwin’s great-grandfather. Fordville was built with techniques popularized by architect Orson S. Fowler in his 1853 book, A Home for All, or the Gravel Wall and Octagon Mode of Building. Fordville’s masonry may be the earliest example in New Jersey of gravel wall construction. Part of the house became a school for area children taught by Edwin’s daughter Sarah Elizabeth.

The Carpenter Gothic edifice is the oldest standing Roman Catholic chapel in Morris County and one of the few that have remained. In 1909 it became the home parish of Father Cornelius Clifford, a prominent scholar, who made the chapel into a liturgical center where he emphasized the use of fine music and art in worship.

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Morris County, incorporated in 1739 by Colonel Lewis Morris, governor of the province of New Jersey, is rich in history. County seat Morristown was the site of two Revolutionary War encampments for George Washington and the Continental Army during the winters of 1777 and 1779-1780. During the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the county was one of the nation’s major iron-producing centers, and by the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries it was renowned for technological developments. The Morris Canal was conceived by George Macculloch of Morristown. Also in Morristown, Stephen Vail designed and built the engine of the “Savannah,” the first steamship to cross the Atlantic, in 1819. Morse code and the telegraph were invented at Speedwell Iron Works by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail. A cousin to the Speedwell Vail’s, Theodore Vail, the first president of the Bell Telephone Company, laid the foundation for what would become AT&T. Denville-based Reaction Motors Inc. designed the propulsion system for the Bell X-1 in 1941; on October 14, 1947, the Bell X-1 became the first aircraft to break the sound barrier. Morris County has also made significant contributions in the social and artistic arenas as well. Beginning in the eighteenth century, Morris County’s women have played active roles in the local and national communities by participating in war efforts, establishing charitable institutions, actively participating in the political arena, and demonstrating for suffrage. The Seeing Eye, the first American guide dog school, has been located in Morristown since 1930. In the early twentieth century, Gustav Stickley chose Parsippany for his furniture and housing design factory. His Craftsman style revolutionized the interior and exterior designs of American homes. Authors and artists as diverse as Dorothy Parker, John Reed, Joyce Kilmer, and Thomas Nast called the county home at one time or another.<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Morris County, incorporated in 1739 by Colonel Lewis Morris, governor of the province of New Jersey, is rich in history. County seat Morristown was the site of two Revolutionary War encampments for George Washington and the Continental Army during the winters of 1777 and 1779-1780. During the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the county was one of the nation’s major iron-producing centers, and by the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries it was renowned for technological developments. The Morris Canal was conceived by George Macculloch of Morristown. Also in Morristown, Stephen Vail designed and built the engine of the “Savannah,” the first steamship to cross the Atlantic, in 1819. Morse code and the telegraph were invented at Speedwell Iron Works by Samuel Morse and Alfred Vail. A cousin to the Speedwell Vail’s, Theodore Vail, the first president of the Bell Telephone Company, laid the foundation for what would become AT&T. Denville-based Reaction Motors Inc. designed the propulsion system for the Bell X-1 in 1941; on October 14, 1947, the Bell X-1 became the first aircraft to break the sound barrier. Morris County has also made significant contributions in the social and artistic arenas as well. Beginning in the eighteenth century, Morris County’s women have played active roles in the local and national communities by participating in war efforts, establishing charitable institutions, actively participating in the political arena, and demonstrating for suffrage. The Seeing Eye, the first American guide dog school, has been located in Morristown since 1930. In the early twentieth century, Gustav Stickley chose Parsippany for his furniture and housing design factory. His Craftsman style revolutionized the interior and exterior designs of American homes. Authors and artists as diverse as Dorothy Parker, John Reed, Joyce Kilmer, and Thomas Nast called the county home at one time or another.<br>

<b>MarkerDescription:</b> Established in 1718, the Hanover Presbyterian Church is the oldest religious congregation in Morris County. A small meeting house was built in 1755. The present edifice, an eclectic design combining Greek and Gothic revival styles, was built in 1835. The Church is the main focal point of the Hanover Village Historic District, a former agricultural community with structures built between the eighteenth and early twentieth centuries in a variety of styles. The village became a set in the 1912 D.W. Griffith film “The Stream of Life.” In the late 1920s residents successfully fought to prevent the state from executing its plans to have Route 10 constructed directly through the main street, within a few feet of church property.<br>
