Good morning, David Tourison, of Sheridan, WY, has been transcribing "Archives of the State of New Jersey, First Series, Documents Relating to the Colonial History of the State of New Jersey, Volume XXII, Marriage Records, 1665-1800; Edited, with an Historical Introduction on the Early Marriage Laws of New Jersey, and the Precedents on which they were Founded," by William Nelson; Paterson, N.J. 1900. The eventual home of his data will be RootsWeb, but he has also begun posting the data in installments to the New Jersey mailing list at RootsWeb. The first installment, just posted, consists of marriage records from the Church of Christ, Shrewsbury, NJ, commencing 1734. If you are researching NJ ancestors, this data will be a blessing. One way to access it is by subscription to the NJ mailing list, which I've done myself in digest format. (I would guess that installments would run for months, given the size of the database.) The list's archive can also be consulted. I will try to post any BROOKS listings which appear in David's transcriptions to this list, but I do grudgingly recognize that there are other surnames in the world worthy of research, so go get yer own! :-) For more, see the message thread "NJ Marriages" (Jan 2006) in the list archive. http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/NJ. To subscribe to the New Jersey list, write to NJ-L-request@rootsweb.com with just the word SUBSCRIBE in the body of your email. Chris
