WARREN.

We find the following trustees in 1803: Oliver Stelle, Francis Dunn, John Kelly, Isaac Stites, David Ayres, Elijah Smith, and John Worth.

The following clergymen have preached for this church, beginning with the first minister: Rev. Henry Crosley, Rev. Reuna Runyon (supplied onee a month), Rev. Abner Sutton, Rev. Lebbeus Lathrop, Rev. John Ellis, Rev. John Watson, Rev. Morgan R. Cox, Rev. Edward C. Ambler, Rev. Thomas W. Haynes, Rev. Messrs. Timberman, Cole, Pike, Hop- per, and the present pastor, Rev. Mr. Gibb. Deacons Ayers, Worth, Stelle, Smalley, Moore, Compton, and others have been among the influential men of the church.

The church was divided in 1851, and a branch formed the Millington Baptist Church in the town- ship of Bernard.

The present meeting-house was built before the Revolution, and is thus alluded to in a report made in 1851 :

" Within whose sacred walls many a fervent prayer from pions hearts ascended to tho God of battles to crown their efforts with a permanent and glorious victory."

This church began its career with 18 members; according to a report made in 1851 it had inereased to more than 200. Its present membership does not exceed 60.

MOUNT HORER METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCHI.

The first Methodist preachers who officiated in this immediate vicinity were Revs. Elom Genung, Stephen Day, and John Hancock, all local preachers. They held their services in the houses of John Smith, John and Benjamin Coddington, David Ruekman, and Robert Adams. In 1820, Rev. Bartholomew Weed, of the Philadelphia Conference (which then included the State of New Jersey), preached in the vicinity and organized a class of eight persons in the house of Benjamin Coddington, about a mile and a half east of the present church. The elass consisted of Isaiah, Benjamin, and Hannah Coddington, David and Eliza- beth Ruckman, Charity Bird, Rachel Adams, and others.

The first house of worship was erected in 1824, at a cost of $1500. The names of the members at that time were Jacob and Lydia Giddis, John Smith, Wil- liam King, John and Rachel Gordon, Isaiah Eaton, Nancy Blue, David Coddington, Mary Tunison, Henry Moore, Matty Richards, and Thomas Thomas. The first stick of timber for the building was hauled upon the site by William King. Rev. Joseph Rush- ing, of New Brunswick, preached the dedieatory sermon.

The church became a regular charge under Rev. Lawrence MeCombs, of New Brunswick, about the time of the erection of the building, being probably included in the Essex Circuit. The following min- isters, members of the Philadelphia Conference, preached to this church from 1824 to 1831 : Revs. 1

Isaac Winner, David Best, William A. Wiggins, George Banghart, Anthony Atwood, Sedgwick Ris- ling, Benjamin Collins, and John K. Shaw. In 1831 it beeame a part of Somerset mission, with Revs. David Bartine and John S. Gilder as preachers. Since then the following have been the pastors or ministers of the circuit in which Mount Horeb is included :

1832, John S. Gildor ; 1833, Charles T. Ford, Benjamin Day ; 1:34, Junies Buckley; 1×35, Isnac Cross; 1836, E. Thomas, James O. Rogers; 1837, Abram Gearhart, Georgo Hutchins ; 1838, Georgo F. Brown, William K. Rogers; 1-39-10,* James O. Rogers; 1:41-12, J. S. Beegle; 1843, S. E. Post; 1844-45, Oliver Bagley; 1846, J. F. Can- field ; 1847, l'. D. Day, William Il.

B. Shultz; 1871 -76, G. T. Jackson ; 1877-79, C. A. Wumbaugh ; 1880, G. F. Apgar.

In 1835 the name was changed to "The New Ger- mantown and Somerset Mission."

In 1844 the parsonage was purchased, and furnished in 1845. The society worshiped in the old church for a period of forty-three years, or until 1867, when a new and commodious edifice was erected at a cost of about $11,000.

A Sunday-school was carly established. The record shows that in 1850 it had 9 officers and teachers, 30 scholars, and 70 volumes in the library. The present number of members of the school is 80; of the church, 125.

SPRINGDALE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH.

This church is included in the Mount Horeb charge. It was many years ago a Protestant Methodist Church, and was founded by Rev. Mr. Woodruff, of the New York Conference. Among the first members were John Waldron, William Winans, Asa Lawler, Ben- jamin Lawler, David Lawler, Mrs. Keziah Waldron, Mrs. Ann Eliza Lawler, David Coulter and wife, Azariah Mundy, and others. Sept. 7, 1858, the church property was deeded by the trustees of the Protestant Methodist Society-David Coulter, John Mundy, and Asa Lawler-to Peter Winans, Jerome Waldron, Pat- terson Waldron, James Humble, and Andrew J. Fauroat, trustees of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Some of the pastors prior to 1858 were Rev. Messrs. Woodruff, Langdon, Turford, Burch, Hatf, and Black- more. Since then it has been served by ministers from Mount Horeb.

The church has undergone repairs, and is a neat and convenient house of worship. The present trus- tees are Peter Winans, George W. Mundy, Peter Bowers, Matthias Giddis, and Revaud K. R. Wal- dron; Stewards, Samuel Voorhees, Peter Winans, George W. Mundy ; Class-Leader, Samuel Voorhees.

The church has a Sunday-school, and a present membership of 50.

. Mount Horeb made a separate charge, 1: 40.

S58

SOMERSET COUNTY, NEW JERSEY.

UNION VILLAGE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH is included in the charge at New Providence. Before the erection of the house of worship, in 1822, meet- ings were for a long time held in private houses. Elom Genung, a local preacher residing in the town- ship, was largely instrumental in building the church.

The present trustees are David D. Smalley, Sr., Charles Major, and Charles Sage ; Stewards, Israel J. Coon, David D. Smalley, Jr .; Class-Leader, Israel J. Coon ; Pastor, Rev. J. B. Heward, New Providence.

CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH, COONTOWN.

This church is known as the First Congregational Church in Warren. It was founded in 1849, and the services are conducted in the German language. Among the members at the time of the organization were George Kline, William Miller, Martin Miller, John Miller, George Baker, Emmanuel Dealınann, Morris Dealmann, George Friday, Sebastian Zimmer- mann, Ferdinand Dumb, Mr. Newmiller, Adam Her- rich, and Peter Wilhelm. The first minister, Rev. Basil Wure, was a German Lutheran. His successors have been Rev. Messrs. Geier, Oerter, Neff, Wolfe, Shnelendresser, Shabedorn, Power, and Sharer, the present pastor, who took charge in September, 1879.

The first house of worship was built in 1849. In 1872 the present edifice was erected, at a cost of $1600. The trustees are Christian Carhl, Sebastian Zimmermann, and Peter Wilhelm; Elders, Sebastian Zimmermann, George Friday, and Theodore Brockley. Membership, 45; Sunday-school, 50. John Kirch has been elder and treasurer, and served in the latter capacity when the church was built.

BURIAL-PLACES.

Throughout the township the churchyards are oc- cupied as burial-places, according to the immemorial custom of the English people. There are some ex- ceptions, as in the case of private grounds selected for burial in neighborhoods where no churches existed or were remote from the settlements. The Allen burying-ground, in Washington Valley, one of the oldest in the township, is of this sort, and there rest the remains of several generations of that name, and kinsfolk and neighbors mingle in common dust.

Probably the oldest burying-ground in Warren is that of the Baptist Church in Mount Bethel .*

VILLAGES AND HAMLETS.

WARRENVILLE, in Washington Valley, contains a post-office,-the only one in the township,-one store, school-house, fifteen or twenty houses, one black- smith's shop, and one wheelwright's shop. Daniel

Bornman is postmaster and keeper of the store. He has occupied the premises about twenty-eight years. Near this place is a copper mine, owned by Richard Field, of Bound Brook, and in the rock there are in- dications of gold and silver in small quantities.

MOUNT BETHEL has two stores, blacksmith-shop, a hotel, kept by Jacob Blimm, also proprietor of one of the stores; the other being kept by Jacob J. Laing. There are about a dozen residences, a school-house, and a Baptist church.

UNION VILLAGE, near the east part of the town- ship, is a small hamlet, containing one store, kept by J. F. Schwalb, a blacksmith- and wheelwright-shop, and a Methodist Episcopal church, supplied from New Providence, by the minister in charge, Rev. J. B. Heward.

SMALLEYTOWN contains a school-house and sev- eral residences.

MOUNT TABOR is a little cluster of residences, . shops, etc., on a slight elevation in the extreme western part of the township. The first farmhouse in the vicinity is that of John Nelson, a native of Sweden. It is on the Reuben Coddington place, the old estate of John Coddington, a soldier in the Revo- lution. There are here a fine Methodist Episcopal church and convenient parsonage, the history of which is given elsewhere.

COONTOWN, though anciently the centre of consid- erable business, contains nothing now to distin- guish it from the common farming country of the township. On the corner there used to be a distillery and cider-mill, owned by Isaac Smalley and Joel Coddington ; they discontinued it about twenty-five years ago. Near it were two blacksmith-shops, owned respectively by Nathan Coon and Jesse Moore. A hat-shop also stood near by, carried on by Isaac Harris. There were also two stores in the place, -- one by Laning Blue, and, afterwards by Joseph Keiney ; the other by Martin Miller. All these have long since gone, and the land is converted into farms. The old distillery is now used as a barn.

INDUSTRIES.

The industries of the township are chiefly agricul- tural, including stock- and grain-raising and dairying. Dairy-farmers mostly sell their milk to supply the Newark market.

There are two saw-mills,-one owned by the estate of Elias Baird, and operated by Peter D. Baldwin ; the other is owned by Aaron A. Stites. Mr. Baldwin also manufactures brush-blocks, whitewash-brush handles, belaying-pins, and pumps for water casks on ship- board. A great many hoop-poles are cut in the township and taken to market. Cord-wood is mar- keted to a considerable extent, and also charcoal.

NORTH PLAINFIELD.

SITUATION AND BOUNDARIES.

THE township of North Plainfield lies in the ex- treme east part of Somerset County. It is bounded north by New Providence, in Union County; east and south by Green Brook, which separates it from the city of Plainfield and township of Piscataway, in Middlesex County ; west by the townships of Bridge- water and Warren, from the latter of which it was set off' by act of the Legislature approved April 2, 1872. The act gives the following description :

" All that portion of the township of Warren, In the county of Somer- sot, lying within the boundaries and descriptions following,-to wit: Be- ginning at a point in the centre of Green Brook, near Sebring's grist- mill, and corner of Warren and Bridgewater townships; from thenco along the Bridgewater line and Warren to the centre of the public road lending from Bound Brook to Washington Valley ; from thence n straight line lu n northeasterly course to a point in the line of Culon County on the farm of Thomas Rogers, and is the corner of New Providence towoship; front thence along the line of New Providence and Warren townshipe to a point in the line of Westfield township; thence along that Hino and the line of Plainfield township to the line of Piscataway township, in the county of Middlesox ; thence along the line of enid l'is- cutaway township to the aforesald point in the centre of Green Brook and place of beginning,-be, and the same Is hereby, set off from the said township of Warren, and erected into n new township, to be called and known by the name of ' The Township of North I'tainfield.' "4

PHYSICAL FEATURES.

This township is an oblong piece of territory, about 8 miles in length and of an average width of 2 miles. It contains, therefore, an area of about 16 square miles. Its surface is divided between the plain lands of the red sandstone formation and the outer slope and declivities of the First Mountain, along the ridge nf which is the dividing line between it and Warren township. This mountain, on the North Plainfield side, within the limits of the township, is composed of shale and trap rock, and is in many places rough

and precipitous. The outer slope differs essentially from the inner, being much more abrupt and precipi- tous, and presenting wild and picturesque scenery. This is especially the case at Washington Roek and in the gorge of Stony Brook, near Washingtonville. This brook forms the principal depression in the First Mountain within the township of North Plain- field, and through its rugged and picturesque gap passes the road from Plainfield to Warrensville. It rises in Washington Valley, runs eastward to Wash- ingtonville, at the head of the gorge, and, bending almost at a right angle, flows southward and then westward till it forms a confluence with Green Brook, on the southwestern township line, below Washington Park.

The area of the red sandstone within this township is included between Green Brook and the base of the First Mountain, and follows the line of intersection with the trap and shale. It underlies the entire plain region, the soil being sandy or sandy loam. This portion of North Plainfield, especially in the western part, contains the finest farms, the land being easily worked, and, when properly cultivated and fertilized, productive. It is good land for wheat, rye, potatoes, and vegetables generally.

At the Washington Valley quarry, North Plainfield, a fine quality of freestone has been quarried. It is of a light-gray or buff color and easily worked. The quarry was first opened by Wallace Vail in 1864. about the first stone taken out being for the First Baptist church of Plainfield, which is constructed entirely of this material; also, largely, St. Mary's (Catholic) church, the Natherwood Hotel, and a large number of foundations and bridges in different parts of the State. Some stone from this quarry has been sent to New York. It is now owned by Alfred

EARLY SETTLEMENT.

In the Green Brook valley, extending from the western boundary of the township northeastward, was a succession of early land owners who had large farms, reaching across the plains from the brook to the First Mountain. Many of these occupied their lands be- fore the Revolution. Beginning with the western- most, we shall name these in the order of their farms.

The Vails were among the earliest settlers. John and Stephen, the ancestors, came from Long Island at an early time. Their father's name was Samuel ; they were members of the Society of Friends. John Vail settled on the place where the late Jonah Vail lived, on Green Brook, and Stephen on the next farm, now owned by Mr. Palmer. Stephen Vail was great- grandfather of Mrs. Ephraim Vail, now living on the estate at the advanced age of ninety. Her husband, Ephraim, was a grandson of John, one of the first settlers, who had nine sons,-viz., Samuel, born Aug. 24, 1732; Jolin, June 29, 1734; Daniel, Jan. 7, 1735 -36; Isaac, Nov. 27, 1737; David, April 5, 1740; Jacob, July 3, 1742; Abram, July 22, 1744 ; Benja- min, Aug. 3, 1750 ; Joseph, June 12, 1752; Christiana, Dec. 10, 1753. Four of these sons-John, David, Abram, and Joseph-settled, respectively, on the Jonah Vail place, where Charles Sanford now lives, Jonathan-who reared large families.

and on the Ephraim Vail place, where Samuel Smalley now lives,-places adjoining. Samuel Vail died when a young man, and Daniel, Isaac, Jacob, and Benjamin settled at Basking Ridge.

John Vail (2d), who settled on Green Brook, had children, - Margaret, Edward, Ann, Isaac, Phebe, Nathan, and Joel. Amos, of this family, was the father of Ann, Abram, Jonah, and Phebe. Jonah died June 7, 1880, aged eighty-one; his widow is now over eighty. Jonah left sons,-Theodore, Adel- bert, and Amos, the second of whom resides on the old estate at Green Brook.

The grandchildren of Stephen Vail, and children of Stephen (2d), were Samuel, Moses, Shubal, Re- becca, Aaron, Sarah, Randal, Mary, Hugh, and Cath- arine. Of the children of Samuel, the only one now living is Rebecca, widow of Ephraim, aged ninety. The house in which she resides was built in 1774, and one room of it at a considerably earlier date. Ephraim died April 26, 1878, aged ninety-four. He had a sister Nancy, who was born and died in the same house, at the age of ninety-eight. Of the chil- dren of Ephraim, there are living on the old estate Sarah, S. Line, Emmor K. Vail, and Abram M. Vail. Mr. and Mrs. Ephraim Vail were married March 21, 1810, and had lived together in wedlock previous to his death, in 1878, sixty-eight years, and always oc- cupied the same house.

The Vail fulling-mill was the first cloth-dressing establishment in this portion of the country. It was owned, together with a saw-mill at Coontown, by Samuel, who was a clothier. In connection with his fulling-mill was also a carding-machine; it was a great convenience, as farmers then made their own cloth. The settlers in this section went to Plainfield to church and to get their mail after the establishment of the first post-office, in 1806.

Enos, grandfather of E. W. and Nelson Runyon, lawyers of Plainfield, was one of the early residents ; also David Boice, father of Patterson and Cornelius. Farther northeast were the families of the Mannings, of whom John and Isaac were the principal early settlers. They came from Bergen about the time of the Revolution, and owned large farms extending from the brook to the top of the mountain. None of the family now reside in the town. Between the Woodens and the Mannings lived the Williams fam- ily, some of whom still remain. Next west of the Mannings lived Andrew Cadmus, who had three sons, -Abram, Frederick, and Cornelius,-descendants of whom still live in the township,-Abram and Rudger.

Israel Wooden was a large land owner and farmer in the same vicinity. His father was among the first settlers. Mr. Wooden was born in the township, then included in Warren.

Andrew Drake was an early settler in that part of Warren now North Plainfield. He died more than sixty years ago, an old man, leaving sons-Hugh and

ARCHIBALD CODDINGTON.

Archibald Coddington, the subject of this sketeli, represents a large and well-known family of the name in Somerset Co., N. J. He was born near Mount Horeb, in Warren town- ship, in January, 1810, and lived on the home- estate till he attained his majority. He is a son of Archibald and Mary Coddington, and grand- son of Isaac Coddington, who was the first set- tler of the name in the township. Learning the trade of a blacksmith of his brother Isaiah, he worked with him in partnership for several years, and in 1834 purchased a farm in Bernard township. This farm he sold in 1839, and bought another in Warren, where he resided till 1861, having in the mean time bought the mill property in Green Valley, where he now re- sides.

mantie spot. A mill was built here in 1840 hy John Binge, and was purchased by Mr. Cod- dington in 1854, who remodeled it in 1860, putting in a new water-wheel and new and im- proved machinery. The mill has three run of stones, and with its constant supply of water is a very desirable property, including in connec- tion with it the blacksmith- and repair-shops, tenement-house, and residences of the proprie- tors, father and son.

In 1830, Mr. Coddington married Eliza Moore, by whom he has had eight children. They are all living, and their names in the order of age are as follows: Moore, John W., Harrison, Ruth W., Asenath, Jane, Eunice, and Mary. Moore, Ruth, and Harrison are married and have families; the rest are single. John W. and Harrison are associated with their father

His large flouring-mill is situated on Stony Brook, near Plainfickl, in a beautiful and ro- in the milling interest in Green Valley.

NORTH PLAINFIELD.

Among the earliest and most influential settlers on Green Brook were the Vermeules,-Cornelius, Fred- mit, Edler, and John. The last was a practicing physician, and diel over sixty years ago. They set- tied in the township at an early time, and purchased some 1400 acres. A grandson of Eder-Manning- r ides in Plainfield, and one of the grandsons of Frederic lives in Middlesex County. Frederic fre- wyently held responsible offices in the township of Warren Cornelius, with Frederick Frelinghuysen, Jota Royce.
