"Recollections of Somerset County's Earliest Years"

"One of the most intriguing figures of this formative age was Herman Husbands (1724 to 1796), an early settler of what would become Somerset County."
In that journal of his written on the frontier of the American colonies amongst settlers moving form the eastern seaboard people are rampantly armed. Not to the teeth but they had some longarm. Not the most advanced but they had something and they knew how to use it.
