The Homedell area has the Hutchinson family to thank for the development of that area of Hamilton Township. At one time, this branch of the Hutchinson family owned 100 acres of farmland which was in the general area between Cedar Lane, Chambers, and Liberty Street. I have been searching for the origins of the numerous cemeteries in that area, and would be interested to know if any of those plots were also part of the Hutchinson farm.-

My mother, Sarah, told me that 1,000 people attended the 150th anniversary of the Hutchinson Homestead in 1935. The Hutchinson family, according to records, has been identified with Hamilton Square since 1735.
