You are now surrounded by the Bynmore Dairy Farm. Currently owned by Andrew Hlubik and his two sons Patrick and Andy. They carry on a dairy business along with the cultivation of other crops. They are one of the two dairy farms in Ocean County (the other dairy farm is also in New Egypt and is owned by John Emery). However, at one time there were twenty four or more dairy farms all located within New Egypt alone.
The farm before you is made up of two original farms, the first was called the Bussom Farm. It was named after the Charles Bussom family who owned it in the early 1800’s. In the mid-1800’s Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Owen Moore, and their seven children occupied the farm house. In 1899, Walter Clement Moore and his younger brother, Addison U. Moore (who both wanted to become printers) printed in the northwest room of the current house (now the kitchen) a four-page paper called "The Advertiser." "The Advertiser" was the first paper to be printed in New Egypt, but was later renamed "The New Egypt Press."
In 1908, Addison bought his brother out, and became the sole owner and publisher of the business. The New Egypt Press became one of the strongest weekly newspapers in Ocean County. Addison was also once a Democratic candidate for Surrogate, Assemblyman and State senator.
Mary Jane (Moore) Hlubik (who passed away December 28, 2014) was the great-great granddaughter of Hugh O. Moore. Her husband, Andrew, and their sons Patrick and Andy along with their families live in the house currently.
