Excerpt from Historical Sketches of Greenwich in Old Cohansey Greenwich in "Old Cohansey, " the second town laid out by the direction of John Fenwick in South New Jersey, has always been noted for the intelligence, morality, and longevity of its inhabitants. As the years go by we learn to appreciate the privations and trials of the pioneers who opened the way for the settlement of the first towns in our state and county. I have endeavored to present authentic history of the early settlers and their successors, and have written of some of the prominent men and women whom I saw and knew in my youth. I acknowledge my indebtedness to "Barber's Historical Collections of New Jersey, " and have been greatly aided by Judge Elmer's "History of Cumberland County, " and other local histories. Trusting that this little work may be valued not only by the present dwellers of "Old Cohansey, " but by all who are interested in the history and memories of the past.
