History of Sussex County, New Jersey
The County of
Sussex (also
known as Sussex
County) is the northernmost county in
the State of New
Jersey. It is part of the New
York Metropolitan Area. As of the 2000
Federal decennial census, 144,166 persons resided in
Sussex County. Sussex County is the 36th wealthiest county
in the United States with its median household income being
$65,266.
The county was founded on 8 June 1753 from portions of Morris
County.[1] Morris
County separated from Hunterdon County which separated from
Burlington County. Originally the area of Sussex County was
under the legal jurisdiction of Burlington County. Warren
County was
separated from Sussex County on November 20, 1824. The
county seat of
Sussex County is the Town
of Newton[2] .

The New
Jersey GenWeb is
composed of Volunteers who are committed to locating local
Genealogical and Historical Resources to be provided free of
charge to visiting Researchers.
We transcribe, abstract, and format these resources so that
they can be put online. If you find that there are errors in
the files on the Sussex GenWeb, please contact the County
Coordinator. If the errors are of a
Historical nature, every effort will be made to add your
comments, we cannot, however, alter original records.
