Important Facts about Spotswood, NJ

Spotswood, New Jersey is a small village nestled along the confluence of the Manalapan and Matchaponix rivers which form the South River in southern Middlesex County. Surrounded by pine trees and wetlands, these resources provided a basis for two sawmills operated by a prominent Native American sachem named Weequehela which developed into a major industrial complex in the years preceding the American Revolution. Little was known of this history, with only scattered and incomplete memories forming the basis for understanding Spotswood’s past. The primary responsibilities of an historian are to be accurate and thorough. Too much folklore has been accepted as history, and the result is that the beauty and eloquence of the truth has been obscured by needless embellishments. One immediate example is the ongoing assertion that Spotswood was founded in 1685 by James Johnston. This piece of folklore is due to the misinterpretation of some letters written by him. Spotswood, as a place name for the village, does not appear until the mid-18th century. Prior to that, it was usually referred to as Johnston’s Mills. Even Weequehela’s amazing legacy was corrupted into a handed-down story which claimed him to be a “half-breed” named McQueely.

In 1727 Weequehela was found guilty of murdering a local colonist, John Leonard, and was executed in Perth Amboy. A portion of his extensive plantation was claimed by Leonard’s widow and sold, while the remaining lands were deeded away in 1739. The land encompassed two-and-a-half miles of the Manalapan and South River waterway, future site of subsequent industries. The story of the Spotswood Mills centers on the South River watershed in southern Middlesex County, New Jersey. The South River is a major tributary to the Raritan River of central New Jersey, flowing into the latter just before it enters Raritan Bay, which forms part of the New York harbor. Throughout history, the South River and Raritan estuaries have provided easy transportation for people living and working in the area. From Native American trading activities at the Roundabout of Edison and Sayreville, to Revolutionary War whaleboat warriors to ship captains plying lumber and produce to New York, these rivers have been important resources.
