About this Event
During the Revolution, many state governments allowed the seizure and sale of Loyalist property, which helped raise revenue for the states and solidify the revolutionary government’s power. The proceeds from such sales were used to defray a state’s debts. Being the “Cockpit of the Revolution”, New Jersey bore a substantial part of that debt. A map in the Hunterdon County Historical Society’s holdings is one that was used at a sale south of Trenton in March of 1782.Join historian John Allen as he explores the significance of this map. 7 pm.Main Branch of the County Library, Route 12, Flemington.
