  • Bloody Bound Brook & the Lost Hessian
    by Bob Mayers It would not be until the end of World War II that a diary was rediscovered that shed new light on the importance of the Battle of Bound Brook. t dawn on Palm Sunday, April 13, 1777, in the third year of the American Revolution, a Hessian captain with his company of thirty Jaegers Afaltered and fell as intense musket and cannon fire tore into them from an American redoubt. They were fearlessly attempting a frontal assault over a stone bridge that crossed the Bound Brook at a New Jersey riverbank hamlet of the same name. The Hessians—German mercenaries—were the most deadly light infantry in the world at the time. These elite special forces were feared by their American opponents. Armed with short carbine- type German hunting rifles, they dressed in green and brown to blend in with their surroundings, unlike the blazing red wool uniforms of their British allies. That, morning the small unit of Jaegers was the advanced party of a British force of 4,000 men. These Redcoat invaders were attempting a surprise attack on an exposed front line outpost on the Raritan River. It was defended by a garrison of 500 Continental troops who were responsible for guarding the three bridges that crossed the Raritan River that were likely to be used by the British in moves against Washington’s main army at Captain Johann Ewald Morristown. C. A. Jensen, after a drawing by H. The Hessian commander, Captain Johann Ewald, sensed that J. Aldenrath something was dreadfully wrong. Although his rangers were especially combat-trained for both rugged terrain and urban fighting, they were outnumbered and outgunned; they were being slaughtered as they charged into the thick gunfire at the fortification.

  • Lasting Influences of Pre-Twentieth Century Industrialization in Lambertville, New Jersey
    Lasting Influences of Pre-Twentieth Century Industrialization in Lambertville, New Jersey. By: Jesse Riegel North Union Street in Lambertville, c. 1910. (Photograph courtesy of Lambertville Historical Society) Seminar: Senior History Capstone (Fall 2017) Professor: Jodi Weinstein The College of New Jersey Early American Industrialization The development of the United States was strongly influenced by the many trends and innovations in industrialization that emerged throughout the world during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, which has become known as the Industrial Revolution.1 During this time, the United States’ economy skyrocketed. The Industrial Revolution not only introduced many of the nation’s early industries such as mills, transportation (canal and railroad), and manufacturing, but also ideologies, such as capitalism that still governs its economy. Scholarly works on the Industrial Revolution have provided insight on how significant that era of industrialization was for the United State’s infrastructure and economy and how towns and cities progressed from it. Though this benefits our understanding of how early industrialization shaped the U.S. and its current industries, it provides little insight on how early industrialization shaped the current industries of specific towns/cities. This topic has become more relevant in recent years as those historical towns/cities started to decline by the twenty-first century. In response, some of those towns/cities dramatically changed themselves to accommodate modern markets/industries.
