Summary
Commissioners and the sheriff recognized corporal responders for bravery at a Feb. 8 residential fire and discussed a donation of an original 1935 photograph of Charles Lindbergh leaving the courthouse to the historic courthouse collection.
At the Feb. 8 Hunterdon County meeting, the board and sheriff recognized officers who responded to a residential building fire at 22 East Main Street in Flemington earlier that day.
Sheriff Brady (first name not stated on the record) thanked Corporal Kidd and Corporal Cristadoro for their actions in the response and asked them to come forward so the board could acknowledge their service. The meeting record attributes to the sheriff a report that "on 02/08/2025, approximately 11:30 a.m.," communications received a report of a residential building fire at the address listed.
Separately, the sheriff said Colonel Pat Callahan of the New Jersey State Police had provided an original photograph of Charles Lindbergh leaving the courthouse after the 1935 trial; the sheriff and Colonel Callahan offered to donate the framed photograph to the county for display in the historic courthouse. The item was described on the record as being downstairs, framed and available for the county to accept.
