Presbyterian Manse

Circa 1862

Constructed as a home for clergy (Rev. Townsend) for the Phillipsburg Presbyterian Church in 1858; a magnificent stone structure then located at "Main and Market Streets".

The Manse was sold to attorney John F. Dumont in 1883 and has been used primarily as law offices since. It was the last office of Hon. Frank S. Thompson, Esq., NJ Assemblyman (1942) and State Committeeman (1952).

Marker is on South Main Street (County Road 678) near Randall Street, on the right when traveling south.
