   Photographic Inventory

Rosemont Methodist Episcopal Church
Delaware Township, Hunterdon County

Like many of the churches in the county, this congregation was was formed (in 1859) when members of another church desired a place of worship closer to their homes. Rosemont is three miles from Stockton, all uphill. The church was erected in 1860, but has been used as a residence for many years.
      The village at one time (c. 1880) also had a Presbyterian church, which appears on maps to be next door to this building, but Snell does not list it in his 1881 History of the county..
