The first physician in Quakertown is said to have been Aaron Forman, who lived where J. L. Nixon now resides, and practiced from 1766 to 1794, when he removed to Pittstown. lle was the second to prac- tice in that place, John Rockhill having preceded him. Other physicians at Quakertown were Henry HI. Schenck, 1820-21; William Watson, 1831-33; Albert S. Clark, 1818-56; James H. Studdiford, 1856 -57.

Matthias Abel commenced the practice of medicine at Quakertown in 1857, and is the only physician now in the township.

Dr. Blane entirely omits this name from his valuable " Medical His- fory." This omilon no doubt aroso either from a lack of records, or from the belief that he was merely one of the " handy men." The writer believes that the papers now in hils possession fully cestablish Dr. Will- Bun's standing as a regular practitioner, and justify the placing of bis name at the head of this list.

HUNTERDON COUNTY, NEW JERSEY.

HIGHWAYS.

A deed from Daniel Doughty to Joseph Stennard, of Philadelphia, drawn in 1749, mentions the " Rar- ington" (Raritan) road. This is the old name of the road running east and west through that village. An examination of various deeds leads to the conclusion that it was laid out between 1733 and 1749, and the Trenton road between 1749 and 1764.

The road leading from Pittstown southward is men- tioned in a lease drawn in 1756 as the "road leading trom John Emley, Senior's, to Charles Hoff's," now Pittstown. The road from Bellair's Corner south- ward is mentioned in 1773 as a "two-rod road that runs between Adam Swagart's and Messrs. Monkhill and Clarkson's." The road to Allen's Corner from the west is spoken of in 1768 as a "road leading to the great road leading to Trenton." The one from Quakertown northward was a public highway in 1789; that from the Frog Tavern westward was laid out about 1826.

The Lehigh Valley Railroad, crossing the northern part of the township, was commenced in 1872. The first passenger-train passed through this township June 12, 1875.

CIVIL ORGANIZATION.

Until about the middle of the last century, what is now Franklin township was included in Bethlehem. From that time to the date of its erection into a sep- arate township it formed part of Kingwood. The act establishing the township of Franklin was approved March 21, 1845. The first town-meeting is thus re- corded :

" April 14th, 1845 .- At our annual towo-meeting held at the house of Samuel Trimmer, in Quaker Town, in the township of Franklin, conoty of IIunterdon, and State of New Jersey, the following persons were chosen by the majority of votes, to serve the township io their respective offices the ensuing year : Moderator, John Aller; Town Clerk, Theodore Probasco ; Assessor and Overseer of the Poor, William W. Aller ; Collec- tor and Overseer of Poor, Edward Mason; Chosen Frecholders, Daniel Little, Theodore Holcombe; Surveyors of Highway, John Pierson, John Mechlin; Constable, Barzilla Robbins; Committee, John Sullivan, Theodore Probasco, Dr. John Manners, George W. Waterhouse, Abra- ham Lawshe; School Committee, Daniel Allen, John Lee, Alexander Rea ; Commissioners of Appeals, Edward Mason, David Everitt, Elisha Burd; Judge of Election, Alexander Rea; Ponnd-keepers, Joseph G. Case, Peter S. Sigler."

The principal officers since the formation of the township have been as follows:

JUSTICES OF THE PEACE.

No record of their election was kept until 1859, when John Trimmer and John S. Trimmer were elected. The former held the office until the time of his death, in. 1873. In 1864, John S. Trimmer was succeeded by his brother, Henry S., who holds the office at present. In 1874, William Large was elected ; in 1879, James Hoff.

SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENTS.

Up to 1847 a school committee was chosen each year. In 1845-46 this committee consisted of Daniel Allen, John Lee, and Alexander Rea. In 1847-48, Daniel Allen was superintendent; 1849, Elias H. Trimmer ; 1850-55, Dr. Albert S. Clarke; 1856, Theo- dore Probasco; 1857, James H. Studdiford ; 1858-66, Dr. M. Abel. A change in the school law in 1867 abolished the office.

STATISTICAL.

According to the census of 1880, Franklin has 1339 inhabitants, and the assessors' books for the same year show that it contains 14,449 acres, valued at $871,400. The assessed valuation of personal prop- erty is $446,960; the amount of debt, $373,373; the amount of taxable property, $944,987. The number of polls is 387 ; number of surviving soldiers of the late war, 23.

VILLAGES AND HAMLETS.

PITTSTOWN, lying partly in this township, is its oldest village. It was so named by Moore Furman, during the Revolution, in honor of William Pitt, Earl of Chatham. Previous to this it was called Hoff's, who preceded Furman as owner of most of the prop- erty around .* It is sometimes spoken of in old deeds as "Pitts Town Mills." As elsewhere noted, it was the seat of milling industry at a very early day. It is said to have been a point of some importance during the Revolution. It contains two stores, one grist- mill, one foundry, one machine-shop (all in Franklin), two blacksmith-shops, and about twenty dwellings.

The post-office was established May 17, 1821, with Robeson Rockhill as postmaster. It was discontinued Sept. 23, 1831, and re-established July 12, 1834, with Leonard N. Boeman postmaster. The appointments since have been William R. Smith, April 27, 1840, and Aug. 25, 1845; L. A. Boeman, June 21, 1841 ; Luther Opdyke, July 19, 1850; John L. Tinsman, Dec. "24, 1850; William M. Stryker, April 7, 1859, still in office.

QUAKERTOWN was once called Fairview, but the name seems never to have gained general favor. Its present name is derived from the fact that it was a Quaker settlement. It does not appear to have been generally so called, however, until about the begin- ning of the present century. In 1794 the road to Pitts- town is mentioned in a deed, not as the road from

FRANKLIN.

Quakertown, but as " the road leading from the Quaker meeting-house," etc. What is now known of the store and tavern kept here at an early day is told elsewhere.

In 1789 the Quaker grounds were surveyed by Robert Emley, who drew a draught of the place. This draught is still in existence. The road running north is marked " Road to Reba. Cott's;" west of that road is "Coates' Lande," and cast of it is " Murfin's Lande." "Samuel Kester's house" is drawn where J. T. Stires now lives, " Henry Cliffton's house" where Dr. Abel lives, and " John Brown's house" on Abram Lawshe's corner. These are the only houses shown in the drawing.

William, father of Theodore and Joseph Probasco, had a cabinet-shop on what is now Joseph Probasco's corner, probably as early as 1817; his residence was the house in which James Hoff now lives. Before 1800, Hezekiah Waterhouse built a wheelwright-shop, afterwards used as a store-house, on the south side of the road; it is now occupied as a dwelling, and is known as the "old red house." Edward Welstead lived about sixty years ago on the lot now belonging to Elijah Protts. In 1831 the ground on which the vorner store, the residences of J. P. Trimmer and Samuel Trimmer, the Methodist Episcopal church, and the parsonage now stand was a vacant lot.

At present the village contains a Methodist church, a Friends' meeting-house, two stores, two blacksmith- shops, and about thirty dwellings.

The post-office was established April 2, 1828, with William Nixon as postmaster. Subsequent appoint- ments: James Waterhouse, March 21, 1832; George W. Waterhouse, Oct. 15, 1841; Elijah Warford, March 12, 1852; Henry S. Trimmer, July 15, 1853; Samuel Trimmer, June 5, 1857 ; John P. Gary, June 16, 1864; Elias 11. Trimmer, June 13, 1865; Andrew J. Green, March 26, 1867 ; John H. Vail, March 19, 1869; J. D. Stires, April 16, 1877.

CHERRYVILLE, formerly called Dogtown, is near the Raritan line. It was named in 1839 in honor of a Cherry family who once owned most of the land around it. It contains a Baptist church, a store, a wheelwright-shop, a blacksmith-shop, and about a dozen dwellings. The post-office was established Dce. 26, 1850. William Large was the first post- master. Since then the following have served : Asa S. Snyder, Ang. 5, 1857 ; Reuben Pierson, April 11, 1860, and June 4, 1875; Andrew Emans, Jan. 10, 1862.

John M. Baldwin, April 12, 1860; Josoph King, Aug. 12, 1862; John M. Baldwin, April 2, 1863. The last named still holds the office.

OAK GROVE, in the south of the township, was so called on account of the fine oak-forests around it. It consists of a grist-mill, a saw-mill, a blacksmith- shop, and three dwellings. The post-otlice was estab- lished in 1857. Josiah Willson, the first postmaster, still holds the position.

SCHOOLS.

No records of the early schools have been preserved. All the information now available concerning them is stored up in the memories of old people or buried beneath piles of dusty documents. Just when and where the first school-house in Franklin was erected it is impossible to ascertain. The first of which there is any knowledge was built on or near the corner now occupied by Joseph Everitt's buildings. From a lease in possession of Dr. Race, found among his father's papers, we find that the corner mentioned was leased for school purposes in 1756. About 1810, Charles Potts taught in a log house which stood on a corner of the wood just west of Everitt's buildings. This was evidently the second house. A few years later it was removed to St. Thomas' church, where it did duty for many years. The minutes of a monthly meeting held in "Quakertown," No. 42, in 1752, have this entry :

" We have likewise considered the proposal for settling a School, But, being few of us and so remote from each other, and Some of us under Low Circumstance, so that it seems nulikely to us that we shall be alde to raise n sufficient salary to Support Such School, otherwise we should be very free, and Heartily join with the Proposal, believing it would in some good degree answer the good purpose intended."

All authorities agree that the first school-house was built of logs. A draught drawn in 1789 fails to show that building, which indicates, if it does not prove, that it was not erected until after that date. From what is known by old residents, it would appear that it was built soon after.

In 1817 a new school-house, 16 by 21 feet, was erected south of the road, on a small triangular piece of ground conveyed by Henry Clitlton. This land is now included in the lot owned by John Johnson. After the new house was built, the old one was re- moved to Henry Cliffton's lot, now Theodore Pro- basco's, north of the meeting-house, where it is used as an "out-kitchen" to this day. The first trustees are said to have been Henry Cliffton and Thomas Craven. The first teacher in the new house was Erastus Eno, who taught only a short time. Ile was followed by Henry Coats, who remained several years. Israel Clarke had charge of the school about 1823. Dr. Henry Race taught three terms in 1536-37.

SIDNEY, so called on a map of 1769, is a small hamlet in the northeast of the township. It contains a store, a mill, and four or five dwellings. The post- office was established March 10, 1832, with Richard Coxe as postmaster. The office was discontinued In 1850 the present two-story stone building was erected by a stock company for a high school or academy. It was soon after opened to the public school. The upper story is occupied by Lackatong July 11, 1837, and re-established Sept. 6, 1837, when Carmalo F. Carnand was made postmaster. George W. Holcombe was appointed Oet. 4, 1841; David Phillips, May 9, 1843; James Boss, Nov. 7, 1848; ' Lodge, No. 114 (Odd-Fellows). The first teacher in

this building was Samuel Peel, the second, Charles Kellogg. The school is now under charge of Wilson Rittenhouse.

The first school-house at "Sidney," No. 46, was built of stone, on the corner north of the present school- grounds, in or about 1816. The first teacher was a Mr. Palmer. Nathan Wakefield taught about 1825. This building stood until 1865, when a frame house, 20 by 30 feet, was erected. Miss Adeline Probasco was the first teacher in the new house. Miss Emma Apgar now has charge of the school. The trustees are Joseph Rea, Jonathan Butler, and Hezekiah Geb- hardt.

"Franklin," No. 42, was formed chiefly from the lower part of the Quakertown District, though it is probable that district-lines received but little attention at that day. The first house, a small log structure, was built in 1826. The first teacher was Amos Lundy. A. B. Chamberlain, afterwards sheriff of the county, once taught in this house. It was burned down after a few years, but was replaced by a frame building, 18 feet square, in 1837. Arthur W. Lundy was the first teacher in this house. The new building, as well as the old, stood in the edge of the grove just west of the present school-house. From the circum- stance of its location this school is sometimes called " Maple Grove." The second house remained in use until 1871, when a new one, 22 by 30 feet, was built, at a cost of $800, on a lot purchased of Joseph Myers. George Robinson was the first teacher in the new house. The present teacher is E. T. Bush, and the trustees are Abram R. Vail, George W. Scott, and William Dubon.

The first school-house in "Cherryville," No. 45, was built about 1830,* of stone, near the road, on the ground still devoted to school purposes. In the win- ter of 1830-31 the school was taught by Samuel Wood. In 1860 a frame house, 22 by 30 feet, was erected. Among the teachers since the school was established have been Peter Rake (1833), Jemima Atkinson, - Garfield, - Page, Nathan Solomon, Elias Trout, Matilda Cook, Joseph Buchanan, John Stout, Reuben Pierson, Clara Bonham, - Skillman, Emma Hoff, Mrs. Emma Opdyke, and the present teacher, Elias L. Dalrymple. The trustees are Whitfield Henry, William Volk, and Gershom McPherson.

The school-house at "Sunnyside," No. 44, formerly Young's Mills, a two-story frame building, was erected in 1854. Nathan Solomon was the first teacher. Miss Lizzie Nixon now has charge. The trustees are Lem- uel Marshall, Jacob S. Smith, and Tunis Smith.

Long before a school was established at cither Cherryville or Sunnyside there was a little log school- house below the hill, about half-way between the two. The date of its erection is unknown. A stone house was built on the same spot,-some say in 1839; others,

a few years later. It was soon abandoned and allowed to fall into decay.

In 1852 a school-house was built at the cross-roads west of Oak Grove. A school was kept here at irreg- ular intervals until 1871, when the district was divided, part being united with Franklin and part with Bap- tisttown District. The house is still standing, and is occasionally used for religious purposes.

Famous among the few who made teaching a busi- ness was Jemima Atkinson, said to have taught in every school in the township. There are but few who were pupils here anywhere from twenty-five to fifty years ago who do not cherish lively recollections of " Aunt Jemima."

The five schools of Franklin, according to the " Report of the State Superintendent for 1879," had a total enrollment of 273, out of a school population of 285; average time of keeping the schools open, 10.5 months; average attendance, 117; value of school property (estimated), $4250; total amount re- ceived for school purposes, $1616.94; average salary per mouth,-males, $34.67 ; females, $28.82.

CHURCHES.

FRIENDS' MEETING AT QUAKERTOWN.

The first religious society organized in the town- ship was the Friends' meeting at Bethlehem, then a general name for all the country around. Unfortu- nately, the exact date of its organization cannot be ascertained. The first meeting-house is said (" Tra- ditions of Our Ancestors") to have been built of logs, near the site of the present building, before 1700, and the second in 1714. This statement is evidently er- roneous. The first Monthly Meeting was held on the "10th day of the 7th month, 1744," and from that time to this records more or less complete have been preserved. Back of this there is one date positively fixed by deed of Jacob Doughty to Samuel Large, Samuel Willson, Edward Rockhill, John Stevenson, and Joseph King, dated March 20, 1733, and convey- ing four acres of land to the said parties, for the uses of the meeting. There is no reason to doubt, though there are no records to prove the fact, that the first meeting-house was built soon after the date of this conveyance.

At the first Monthly Meeting, Benjamin Williams . aud Mercy Stevenson declared intentions of marriage. Caleb Raper was made clerk of the meeting. Among the Friends first mentioned in the records are found the names of Kester, Webster, King, Emley, Ste- venson, Willson, Williams, Large, Paxson, Lundy, Doughty, Price, Myers, Coate (or Coats), Atkinson, Schooley, etc.

At the Burlington Quarterly Meeting held Dec. 12, 1744, permission was given to build a new meeting- house at Kingwood, "that they already have not be- ing large enough." It was recommended that it be built of stone, about 36 feet long and 26 wide in the clear.

* Rev. C. S. Conkling's "Centennial Report" says that thore was a log house, built in 1800, near the site of the present building.

FRANKLIN.

March 3, 1747, it was ordered that the following re- port be made :

"That we are building our now meeting-house here 39 feet long aud 27 feet wide, and that we expect by computation that the Cost will amount to £150."

This house was burned before it was fully com- pleted, and the Friends were soon again busy with their building. From the miuutes of the Monthly Meeting held Feb. 13, 1752, we quote :

"This mneoting nppoints Jeremiah Williams, Jonathao Robeson, Jos- eph King, and Thon Atkinson to agree with snitable workmen to re- pair the mooting-house of Friends in Kingwood (known by the Game of Bothlohem Meeting-house) in such sort, manner, and form as they think best."

In 1754 they report the house rebuilt on the former model, "as nearly completed as it was before it burned down." They were then holding their meet- ings in the new house, which it had cost them £107 to "repair." This was the okl stone house which stood for more than a century. For more than eighty years it was the only house for religious purposes within the present limits of Franklin township. During the war of the Revolution it was used and abused for a time by a detachment of British soldiers. Tradition says that during their stay here some of them died and were buried in the "Quaker wood," a lot lying rast of the road, and now owned by Joseph Probasco.

During this trying period many Friends suffered for opinion's sake. Some were thrown into prison and subsequently fined for refusing to take up arms or "become instruments for the shedding of human blood."*

In 1862 the historic old building, which, with its ohl-fashioned " hip-root," had stood as a landmark to four generations, was torn down, and replaced by a smaller and more modern, but substantial, structure.

John Willson and Abram R. Vail are the present

trustees. The latter has also acted as clerk for many years.

The society is rapidly waning. Only a few of that faith remain in all the region round, but the organi- zation is kept up and meetings are held as regularly as though the house was thronged.

THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH OF QUAKERTOWN.+

Methodism was introduced into Quakertown by Daniel Green and his wife, who came about 1836 and opened their doors to preaching by itinerants. Prior to this there was a Methodist church at Flemington, and one at Everittstown. When Daniel Green moved away (date not recorded), another Methodist couple, David R. Bodine and his wife, moved into the house vacated by Mr. Green.

Nine persons composed the first class. These were David R. Bodine and wife, Abram Slack, Pearson Drison and wife, G. W. Waterhouse and wife, and Abram Bennett and wife. Of these Mr. Bennett re- mains to the present day. The first preachers were Jacob Hevender and James M. Tuttle, with Mr. Ma- zellus, a local preacher. Soon after the "regular or periodic visitation," a wood's-meeting was held about a mile north of Quakertown, at which about thirty were converted. The good work was then transferred to the old school-house in the village. This was in 1838.

The school-house soon proved to be too small, and it was decided to build. The lot was donated by G. W. Waterhouse. The church was ereeted in 1840, at a cost of $1200, upon very nearly the site of the pres- ent structure. Rev. A. R. Street and Rev. George Hitchins were the preachers in charge. The build- ing committee consisted of G. W. Waterhouse, D. R. Bodine, D. Green, and Rev. A. R. Street.

After the building was raised, Peter S. Sigler-not a member of the church, but a well-wisher of the cause-offered to bear one-third the cost of side-gal- leries. At this liberality Rev. George Hitchins took courage, and raised the balance in a very short time.

At this time the Quakertown Circuit embraced Quakertown, Frenchtown, and Everittstown. In 1842, Zerubbabel Gaskel was appointed first preacher on the new circuit. He served faithfully for two years, and was then followed by Joseph Gaskel, who bore no relation to his predecessor; he remained one year. Abram M. Palmer was appointed in 1845. In 1847, Thomas T. Campfield came to , the circuit. During his second year he conducted a protracted meeting which resulted in the conversion of 108 per- sons. Sylvanus W. Decker was appointed in 1849, and Rodway Wynans in 1851.

In 1853 two preachers, Joseph C. Tally and John D. Blaine, were appointed to the Quakertown Circuit. The latter died from the effects of rupturing a blood- vessel.

Brothers Korah and Robb were appointed about

this time. They remained but a short time. Joseph Horner then took charge, serving one year. Joseph Sleeper followed, and remained two years. In 1856, W. W. Christine took charge. He was followed by Jolın S. Coit, since deceased. He was instrumental in the purchase of a parsonage near the church. It was bought of G. W. Waterhouse for $1000. A great revival crowned his labors. W. W. Voorhees was the next preacher. Quakertown and Everittstown now constituted one charge.

J. P. Daily succeeded Mr. Voorhees, and remained two years. Everittstown was now placed with French- town. Mount Salem and Pattenburg were connected ! with Quakertown. J. B. Heward was pastor from 1864 to 1866, and M. F. Swaim for the next three years, followed by Joshua Mead, who remained two years. The question of a new church began to be generally agitated. Peter D. Day was the next pastor.
