In a previous thread on History And Folklore, Posted by Sonny, Rusty Spinner mentioned a book he borrowed from JeffK. Being a
NJ History buff, I found that the Mercer County Library had not only that book, but several others also written on similar subjects by Peter O. Wacker.
If interested, see if your county library also has the books available.

The Musconetcong Valley of New Jersey: A Historical Geography; Land and People: A Cultural Geography of Preindustrial New Jersey Origins and Settlement Patterns.
