"The Truth About Colonial Linden" *Update* 10/7/18

Ok Big update. For the Truth about Colonial linden
taking some suggestions for online searching from the
NJ historical society I found loads of
important info I've been scouring for.
so I'm able to save myself the second DC trip
however I stepped into a rabbit hole and i'm gonna
take it all the way. The history of the settlers
in what would become the Township of Linden, later the
City of Linden and Borough of Roselle is mostly
forgotten. the farmers and craftsman patriots
and statesmen have been whitewashed from our
collective pride. I owe it to the project and to my
home to bring back as much clarity and truth as I can

Obviously just outside Wheatsheaf in Roselle There is
a replica of Abraham Clark's home and a 4 centuries
site a high school named for him but what does the
average local of Wheatsheaf and Wheatshed know of the
man? A forward thinking man who lived with none of
the hypocrisies. we in hindsight have needed to come
to terms with. that in regards to many founders
he was truly an individual we all can look to as
inspiration and honestly someone all of us could
honor.

But this project isn't merely about revolutionary
pre-linden it's about the whole of the colonial
period and i have uncovered surveys from 1699
containing clinker plots in linden surrounding
Trembley point complete with the names of the
renters. Nailed down most of the large farming
plantations. even uncovered another possible village
site however the survey was copied
in the 1850's and the original no longer exists. so
linden village may have been a contemporary addition
still Worth digging further.

I have solid evidence that Sullivan's notorious raid
of Staten Island was launched from Trembley Pointe as
General De Borre's regiment crossed the kill
prior to Carteret the jersey end of the blazing star ferry.
though not stated by name in Sullivan's
court marshal documents
Trembley would have been the only place because of the
docks and boats for the Trembley's ferry,
it is the same short crossing distance.
The fact that Washington's correspondence
names Trembley as where he had century parties
stationed throughout the jersey campaign
to observe the British who would use
the blazing star route and boats from Staten Island
to land in what is now Carteret.
Washington used the
Rahway River as an obstacle so troops could gather
intelligence as well as have rifle men harass the enemy landings
secure enough to
flee the swamp without casualties. so throughout the course
of the Jersey campaign we had regulars
often stationed here
Other actions from the militia men of Wheatsheaf and
Trembley are also noted and praised by the General
In letters written to both. Abraham Clark was a marked
man and himself and family and their farm where
as far as i can tell entirely defended by our
people. Yes Wheatsheaf was out of the way of the objective
of Elizabethtown however the British despite burnings
and captures were never able to really hold Etown.
thanks to strong use of the terrain and stead fast
resolve we kept them unharmed.
honestly there is so much more. I wanna blurt more out
but we will end here
I appreciate everyone excited for the
production and for baring with me as I do my best
to really make this something special.

The script came directly from my notepad so please do not mind the strange spacing. getting late and I have company.
