Section 3. County Profile
Section 3: County Profile SECTION 3. COUNTY PROFILE This profile describes the general information of the County (physical setting, population and demographics, general building stock, and land use and population trends) and critical facilities located within Morris County. In Section 3, specific profile information is presented and analyzed to develop an understanding of the study area, including the economic, structural, and population assets at risk and the particular concerns that may be present related to hazards analyzed (for example, a high percentage of vulnerable persons in an area). 2020 HMP Changes The “County Profile” is now located in Section 3; previously located in Section 4. It contains updated information regarding the County's physical setting, population and demographics and trends, general building stock, land use and trends, potential new development and critical facilities. This includes U.S. Census ACS 2017 data and additional information regarding the New Jersey Highlands Region in the Development Trends/Future Development subsection. Critical facilities identified as community lifelines using FEMA’s lifeline definition and seven categories were added to the inventory and described in this section. 3.1 GENERAL INFORMATION Morris County is one of the fastest growing counties in the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut metropolitan region. It is located amid rolling hills, broad valleys, and lakes approximately 30 miles northwest of New York City. The County was created by an Act of the State Legislature on March 15, 1738, separating it from Hunterdon County. Morris County was named after Colonel Lewis Morris, then Governor of the Province of New Jersey (the area that now includes Morris, Sussex, and Warren Counties). -

Rails, Quail & Ashburn Hill
Excerpts from Rails, Quail & Ashburn Hill By Frank R. Pidcock, III EARLY HISTORY OF THE PIDCOCK FAMILY The progenitor of the Pidcock line in America was John Pidcock, a Scotch-Irish immigrant. Sometime prior to 1684, he settled in Winnahawcawchunk (or Neely’s Mill), two miles south of New Hope in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. He took squatter’s possession of 502 acres, which he improved by building a grist mill for grinding, as well as 1702 MARKER ON JOHN PIDCOCK HOUSE establishing a trading post with the Indians. The next recorded Pidcock was Johnathan Pidcock. After the death of his father, he moved to Lambertville, New Jersey, where he built a store and a grist mill. He owned a number of Durham boats, on which he and his sons, Emmanuel and Charles, ran cargoes of flour and produce down the Delaware River, returning with store merchandise. When the American Revolutionary War broke out, he and his three eldest sons, Emmanuel, Charles, and Philip, enlisted in the Third Regiment of the Hunterdon County Militia of New Jersey. During the Revolutionary War General George Washington climbed to the top of Goat Hill which overlooked the area where Pidcock Creek ran into the Delaware River. General Washington decided that Pidcock Creek would be the ideal place to rendezvous his Durham boats prior to his crossing of the Delaware. Each year this piece of history is re-enacted at Washington Crossing Park. Both Johnathan Pidcock’s and his Indian wife Ankey’s graves are located in this area on Bowman’s Hill. Another bit of Pidcock history concerning Washington’s crossing of the Delaware is tied into the family of Mrs. -
