Borough of Spotswood-This borough, created April 15, 1908, is on the southeast border of East Brunswick, near the mouth of Machaponix creek, and is a station on the Camden & Amboy branch of the Pennsyl- vania railroad, about eleven miles south of Perth Amboy. Among the earliest residents, of whom there is any record, were David Carnegie (Lord Rosehill), John Lewis Johnston, James Rue, Samuel Neilson, David Stout, Richard Lott, James Abrams and James and John Perrine, referred to in the charter of St. Peter's Church, granted November 23, 1773, by William Franklin, the last royal governor of New Jersey, as "all freeholders and inhabitants of the town of Spotswood," etc. It is the general belief that the Johnston above mentioned, of the ancient family of "Spottiswoode in Scotland," conferred the name in honor of his ancestors, as he was the owner of much land adjacent to the present borough. It is also supposed that the area of the tract known as Spots- wood in 1773 was much larger than the boundaries of the former village. Spotswood owes its existence to the water power there, and was known


476


MIDDLESEX


as a manufacturing point since its earliest history. During the Revolu- tionary War a paper-mill was in operation, and it is claimed the paper was there made on which the Continental notes were printed.


In addition to the above names, as founders of St. Peter's Church, should be those of Frederick Buckley, John Barclay, Thomas Newton and John Rue. John Lewis Johnston's father, John, lived in Perth Amboy for a time, and was largely interested in property there Land in the township was deeded to James Rue in 1785 by Joha. s Van Leuwen, of Somerset county, and Jeromus Lott, of Kings county, New York. It is supposed that Rue came from Monmouth county at a much earlier date. Phineas Mundy was prominent as a property owner and business man in the early eighties. John Bissett, progenitor of the arge family of that name, settled in the town shortly before the Rev- tion, and spent the remainder of his life there.


In 1759, about thirty residents, mainly settlers from Staten Island, built St. Peter's Church, the first service being held by Rev. Mr. Skinner, a missionary from Perth Amboy. It is evident that services were held before the church was built, as Mr. Skinner wrote a friend in 1847: "My circuit is from Amboy to South River, thence to Piscataway, and thence to Perth Amboy." In 1802, Rev. John Croes, of New Brunswick, afterward bishop, became the rector and remained seven years, when failing health induced him to resign. In 1850-1851 the old church was taken down and the present one built.


For some time between 1800 and 1881, Daniel, Andrew and George Snowhill; John, William and Leonard Appleby; Isaac and Augustus De Voe; Phineas, William and Lewis Skinner, John and William Dill, William Perrine, John Outcalt, John Browne and George W. Helme have all been extensively engaged in snuff manufacture. Shirts, hominy and a variety of other articles have also been manufactured. Of late years the snuff making business has been transferred to the neighbor- ing borough of Helmetta.


The three churches are St. Peter's Episcopal, Methodist Episcopal and Reformed Dutch. The first named is very old, the charter having been granted by King George III., of England. In the churchyard are gravestones, the death dites on some being as early as 1762. Some of the names are Dorset, Mears, Reynolds, Dennis, Kinnan, Herbert, Combs, Lott, Culver and Bissett. The church is the second erected upon the same spot, and Rev. William L. Phillips is the rector. The other churches have not settled pastors.


The public school is conducted in a good brick building, and has about 185 pupils, with Miss Anna Fitts as principal.


The population of the borough is about 700. The first officers were: Arthur B. Appleby, mayor; George W. Devoe, clerk; John H. Dill, collector ; Thomas J. Browne, assessor ; William J. Bissett, Augustus A.

The present pastor, Rev. Anthony Luidens, was installed March 17, 1919. The membership of the church is 275.


St. Paul's (R. C.) Church was erected in 1913, the services for the first three years being conducted by supplies from St. Peter's Church, New Brunswick, the pastor and curates of which were largely instru- mental in building the church.
