MORRISTOWN NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK, the first National Historical park established and maintained by the Federal Government, lies partly within Morristown and partly in the city's environs. The park was created by an act of Congress in 1933 and was dedicated on July 4 of that year by Harold L. Ickes, Secretary of the Interior. The three units (Ford House, Fort Nonsense and Jockey Hollow), comprising more than 1,000 woodland acres of hill, glen and landmark, provide a fitting memorial to Washington's troops. (Information available at superintendent's office in Historical Museum, rear of Ford House, 230 Morris Ave., daily except Sunday; and at field office in jockey Hollow, daily except Christmas.)
