History
Headquarters was the site of a grist mill built by John Opdycke (1710–1777) in 1735 along the Caponockons Creek, a tributary of the Neshanic River. The mill was one of the first in Hunterdon County. The current mill was built in 1754 at the same site. It was later rebuilt in 1877 by John A. Carrell. The industry thrived until the early 20th century when the mill shut down.[4]
The community is named Headquarters after the local tradition that George Washington used the stone house built here in 1758 as such for a few days during the American Revolutionary War.[4][5]
The district was first established as a historic area by Delaware Township in the 1980s to push back against a widening of CR 604.
