About Frenchtown, NJ

The Lenape Native Americans had populated the area until they were fully supplanted by European settlement around 1750. Around, 1725, a group of Huguenot refugees settled in Hunterdon County. Originally from the Picardy region of France, they fled after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685. One notable settler was Luther Calvin, a landowner and ferry operator who also bought a Hotel on Everittstown Road. Calvin also served as a 1st Lieutenant of the Associated Companies in 1756 during the French and Indian War.
