NOTE: The geographic coordinates presented are taken from the Pittstown topo map. The USGS GNIS database presents 18 sets of coordinates for this county.

Hunterdon County is a county located in the western section of the U.S. state of New Jersey. Its county seat is Flemington.

Geographically, much of the county lies in the Delaware Valley as a geographic concept, that is, the drainage basin of the Delaware River.

Hunterdon County was established on March 11, 1714, separating from Burlington County, at which time it included all of present-day Morris, Sussex and Warren counties. The rolling hills and rich soils which produce bountiful agricultural crops drew Native American tribes and then Europeans to the area.
