Tumbling over falls and down Hacklebarney’s rugged ravines as it leaves Morris County, the roiling dark waters of the Black River rush headlong to the village of Pottersville, where the landscape begins to flatten and the river banks become wider, and the once raging waterway transitions to the Lamington River and flows gently into Hunterdon and Somerset Counties. The Black/Lamington River is the heart of Pottersville, a village that grew up around the mills and foundry along the river bank, and reached it’s heyday with the arrival of the “Rock-A-Bye-Baby” railroad in the late 1800s. But while the mill wheels and rail cars stopped turning long ago, Pottersville still retains an abundance of 19th century charm and is a popular stop for day trippers and Sunday drivers. Spread out among four townships and three counties, Pottersville is also the place where the boundaries of Hunterdon, Morris, and Somerset Counties all converge, and The Black River Journal is the meeting place for all three. We’re bringing together readers that share a love for the villages, historic town centers, and open countryside that make our area of New Jersey such a unique and special place to live and work!
"While visiting my son and daughter in law in Basking Ridge, I had the pleasure of visiting Oldwick where we happened to pick up a copy of your magazine.
To my delight and surprise I found your articles well written and informative, heads and shoulders above the usual caliber of such advertising journals.
As I am a psychologist, I found “The Asylum” fascinating. Then I moved on to History in Miniature: The Peapack Trestle. I found that article totally charming and quite evocative.
Most surprising is that I read all your articles enjoying the accompanying photographs.
I look forward to perhaps joining the Frilluftsliv revelers next January. It was fun reading about the Wolf Moon and learning its meaning.
Everything about your endeavor, is first rate down to your choice of paper stock.
You give meaning to the saying, 'Anything worth doing, is worth doing well.'”
Thank you,
