History
In 1722, the area was known by its primary landholder, John Annin, as "Annin's Corner." This was changed to "Liberty Corner" during the American Revolution.
On August 29, 1781, the First Brigade of the French Army, the Expédition Particulière, under command of the French general Comte de Rochambeau, camped here by Bullion's Tavern, along the route to Yorktown, Virginia. The next day they marched to the campground at Somerset Courthouse, now Millstone. The American Continental Army marched nearby along different roads as part of this joint effort.
The Bonnie Brae School for boys was an orphanage in the area. It was founded in 1916 as a "working farm" for boys. in 2018 it accepts boys that have been emotionally maltreated.
