-::“In the fall of 1666, a half dozen families . . . living on the banks of the Piscataqua River in NH, moved to the rich farming lands on the Raritan River in NJ.. . . They called the settlement New Piscataqua. . . names of original settlers were, John Martin, Hopewell Hull, Charles Gilman, and Hugh Dunn. Shortly after came families of Drake, Langstaff, Greenland, Giles, Wooden, and others.  Name of settlement became Piscataway.  These people were of the Baptist persuasion.  One, Hugh Dunn was from Dover, NH and his land grant was in the present New Market township and also in town of Durham, NJ.  He also owned 92 acres in Woodbridge.”

-The first settlers from New Hampshire were joined a few years later by a group of people from Eastham and Barnstable, Massachusetts. These included members of the Dunham, FitzRandolph, Smalley and Bonham families.  About 1686 Hugh Dunn, Edmund Dunham, John Drake, John Smalley, Nicholas Bonham and John Fitz Randolph, were instrumental in forming the constituency of a new Piscataway Baptist church based on the observance of the seventh day (Saturday) rather than the first day (Sunday) as the Sabbath.
