Thomas F. Gordon's 1834 Gazetteer of the State of New Jersey: "Stony
Hill, extends from the north branch of the river Raritan, in Bernard
and Bridgewater t-ships, through Warren t-ship, in Somerset co., into
Essex co., in the form of a crescent; formed of trap rock, on old red
sandstone base. Under this name the mountain, following its curve, is
about 12 miles long." (p. 244)
