From the New York Folklore Quarterly, Vol. XXX, No. 3, 1974, “The Jersey Devil’s Finest Hour” by Jeremiah J. Sullivan with James F. McCloy:
For about two hundred years now the rural citizens of South Jersey have periodically been terrified by a folk legend known as the Jersey Devil (sometimes called — after its alleged birthplace in Leeds Point, N.J.— The Leeds Devil.) Some writers put the birth of the Jersey Devil in 1735 (as the cursed child of a woman who had said that she would rather bear a devil than another unwanted child), while others say that the creature is the result of a seduction of a Jersey maiden by a British soldier during the American Revolution.
Whatever its origin, the legend took root in the Pine Barrens of South Jersey. where the “Pinies” carried it into the modern area. By the late nineteenth century a whole folklore had grown up about the Jersey Devil. It was said to have bat-like wings, a horse’s head, the body of a dragon, cloven hoots, and a tail. Sometimes it appeared with a beautiful golden-haired girl and at other times with a blood thirsty, headless pirate. It was known to sour milk, wither corn on the stalk, kill fish in the swamps with its foul breath, peer through windows, run along fences, tap on roofs, frighten women and horses, and eat babies.
