OPDYCKE. Also Opdyke or Updyke. The first of this family in Hunterdon was John Opdycke (1710-1777) and his wife Margaret Green (1711-1775), daughter of Samuel Green. For a time, they owned much of the land around Headquarters, as well as the farm where the covered bridge now stands. Their children and descendants became prominent in Hunterdon history.
