part eight of The Route Not Taken
Proceeding along the proposed railroad route, we come to the village of Sandbrook. If the rail line had been laid out as planned it might have changed the village significantly.
Families

Holcombe Family Tree
The Holcombe family is one of the most extensive early families in Hunterdon County. I have included a sixth generation for them, but perhaps I shouldn’t have—there are just so many of them.
Please, share any corrections or additions you might have. And remember, I list the children of daughters, but not their grandchildren.
Kitchen’s Mill
The Mill in Sand Brook

This article precedes the next episode in my series on the route of the Delaware Flemington Railroad, a rail line that was surveyed, but never built. It was planned to run right through the village of Sand Brook, very close to the old mill.
