My parents moved the family to Canada in 1947. Our backround is almost all from the State of New Jersey and Germany. My Great Grandfather was born in Hamburg in 1850 his wife born in Pomerania in 1856. I am trying to trace their gravesite which I think is Panama Canal Zone. He died in 1910 and she died in 1926. Any help would be beneficial Thanks Don Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Some of the names have pictures with them also. A picture of the cemetery is most times there also.

He had at least two sons, Elisha and Elias. Elisha is my gggrandfather. the sons were born in Ohio between 1818 and 1824 (the years very accroding to the census records and I don't have a definitive age as yet. The wives of these two and their children line up okay. The boys migrated to Iowa before 1856 when my ggrandmother was born.

Ancestry sent out "Collection Update" e-mails on April 12, 2007 stating that the "1885 NJ State Census" was "Coming Soon!". The 1885 NJ State Census has STILL not been posted! Then on May 24, 2007, Ancestry sent out "Collection Update" e-mails stating that the "NJ State Census" (no mention of specific years) was "Coming Soon!" They even posted it in the "Coming Soon" section on their website for a few days back in late June/early July. I have been watching out for it since at least April. (I think they may have even included it in a March e-mail as "Coming Soon" but I cannot find a copy of that e-mail). Needless to say, I am more than a little disappointed with Ancestry's performance on this and I certainly hope they intend to follow through and post the other available NJ State censuses soon. If I had signed up for an annual members! hip based on their misleading advertisements, my annual subscription would almost be over.

Therearno online cemetery records other than some on Findagrave.com. No one withthe surname of Babcock had a probate record filed in Bergen co. bef. 1900 [I checked the index] Try nearby Rockland co. NY Babcock was a large family there.
