Hi: Found these using the USGenWeb search mechanism for NJ. Found at: http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ifetch2?/u1/data/nj+index+72914166898+ F I included Higgins because there are some Higgins/Hinds connections in NC and those Hinds in NC came from NJ.

Keddington These are strictly tombstone inscriptions, not a list of burials in Rahway Cemetery. This was apparently made up in the 1950s as the last burial date noted was 1952. If someone you are looking for is not on this list, they could still be buried in the cemetery either after the list was compiled or without a tombstone. The asterisk (*) indicates that no stone was found for the individual so designated, his name and relationship appearing on the stone of a member of his family. (N.X.N.) These inscriptions were transcribed to go onto the internet by a team of volunteers which included Barbara Benjamin, Joyce Soden Brown, Judy Buckney, Cynthia Busch, Bill Cadmus, Alice Caggiano, Sydney Cardner, Debbie Coon, Arlene Dunkum, Kathy Fehr, Mary Anne Fisher, Carolyn Greene, Penny Hanes, Eileen Karan, Marian Mallory, Barbara Nocchi, Kathleen Pantano, Judy Pisano, Pat Reynolds, Mary Schwarzenberger, and Laura Thomas. The list was posted in August 2000. ------------------------ HINDS Henrietta Wright, d. 7 Aug 1870, ae. 27 yrs. 10 mos. 1 day. Husb George G. Hinds.
