Here are some interesting facts about our new location-
1. The original marl pits after which Marlboro was named are in the back of the church property. People say all sorts of fossils, including dinosaur bones, have been found there.
2. We are across from a very new development, and right down the street from the original Marlboro Village, built around the Civil War.
3. The bike path intersecting Vanderburg will be 26 miles when finished, and go from Freehold Borough all the way to Sandy Hook when completed. It is beautiful.
4. Witherspoon Street across the way is named after a famous American (not Reese!) John Witherspoon was a signer of the Declaration of Independence and President of the College of New Jersey (today Princeton). He was a major influence in the colonies, and a great Christian.
Question- who was Vanderburg?
