Interesting that you should call it "German Valley." That name went out during WWI; I remember the area being called "Long Valley," "Middle Valley," and "Lower Valley." The cemetery where my mom and her brother, her parents, her grandparents and great-grandparents are buried is "Lower Valley Union Cemetery" in Califon, just over the line in Hunterdon County. We're talking both Beattys and Hoffmans. I was out there at that cemetery and three others four years ago; that area appeared to be almost completely unchanged from the way I remembered it as a child. More houses on Schooley's Mountain and around Hackettstown, but the rest was the same.

----- Some things take awhile to change. Ever live in a house where it is never changes the name of who lived there many years ago. Been here 6 yrs and its still the Clem house. I do know the diff Doris. I was born in the blue house directly across the Lower Valley Cemetery, its still there. We talk Apgar, Baldwin, Bush,Schuyler, Stillwell and a few others thrown in.
