Chamber News Feed: Bedminster, NJ: Sweltering temperatures and the lure of backyard pools did not deter 44 parents and children from participating in an archaeological dig at Bedminster’s historic Jacobus Vanderveer House. Participants toured the Jacobus Vanderveer House and property which served as headquarters for General Henry Knox during the winter of 1778-79 while he trained troops for battle in the American Revolution. Parents and children then joined archaeologists from Hunter Research, Trenton, for an introduction to archaeology and artifacts. After that, they went outside to four dig sites, selected by Hunter Research, where they learned to measure, plot, dig, sift, sort, wash and categorize what they found. As dirt fell through sifters, children (and parents too!) were amazed at what was left behind…small chards of pottery that had been buried for more than 200 years! These artifacts, along with others on display at the Jacobus Vanderveer House, tell the story of life in Bedminster during Colonial days. The Jacobus Vanderveer House served as headquarters for General Henry Knox during the winter of 1778-79 and is the only known building still standing that was associated with the Pluckemin Artillery Cantonment, believed to be the first installation in America to train officers in engineering and artillery. The Jacobus Vanderveer House interprets Dutch colonial life in America as well as the stay by General Knox and his family during the 1778-79 encampment. A National and New Jersey Historic Site, the Jacobus Vanderveer House is a true landmark that offers a vivid look into the history of our country and the lives of those who made it. The Jacobus Vanderveer House is located at 955 Route 202/206, Bedminster, behind River Road Park. The entrance to the house is via River Road Park.
