The South Branch Raritan River cuts through the German Valley, anchoring a landscape of small agricultural villages and early industrial sites in wartime Hunterdon County. The Central Railroad of New Jersey follows the river's bend, serving established communities like Califon and Hoffmans. This period shows a transition between traditional rural life and institutional expansion, with the N. J. State Reformatory and the State Dairy situated near Lebanon.
