Welcome!

We're so excited about the upcoming celebration of Mercer County, NJ's 175th Anniversary. This small area of the nation's 3rd state, New Jersey, tells a BIG story, having played host and home to some of the most important moments - and people - in the nation's history.

Starting in January and continuing through to December, 2013, we will be celebrating some of that history in special events and programs. Guest bloggers will also be sharing fun anecdotes, meaningful timelines, hidden stories and more that make up some of the history of this County we call home.

 
For starters, here's a link to a "Mercer County History" account written by local historian and past Mercer County Culture & Heritage Commissioner, the late Mary Alice Quigley. Enjoy!
