About this Event

Step aboard for a fascinating journey through Hunterdon County, and discover how this New Jersey community helped shape the course of the American Revolution. Travel scenic country roads to centuries-old churches, taverns, cemeteries, iron forges, and battle sites, where history unfolded. Stand where General George Washington planned military campaigns, learn how local mills and farms supplied the Continental Army, visit a home that became military headquarter, and explore the stories of Patriots, Loyalists, and ordinary families whose lives were forever changed by the struggle for independence. Along the way, hear remarkable stories of courage and sacrifice, from Daniel Bray's role in Washington's crossing of the Delaware to Jacob Francis, a free Black soldier who crossed the Delaware with the Continental Army. Discover how neighbors found themselves on opposite sides of the conflict, how local taverns became centers of political resistance, and how Hunterdon County's roads witnessed raids, skirmishes, and military movements that formed part of a much larger war. More than a sightseeing trip, this is a story woven together from the people, places, and events that transformed a rural county into an essential part of America's fight for independence. Join us for an unforgettable journey through the crossroads of the American Revolution, and discover why Hunterdon County was far more than a witness to history. It helped make history.
