    1. [NJBurlin] ARINSON or AARONSON Family Photograph
    2. Shelley Cardiel
    3. I've "rescued" an old photograph identified as Linda ARINSON (guessing it should be correctly spelled AARONSON) which was taken at the Fritz Studio in Lambertville, New Jersey. In addition to her name, someone has also written "Cousin L. E. A." and "cousin of Florence SEGAR" on the back of the photograph. I believe that the photograph was probably taken in the 1880's with Linda appearing to be in her teens at the time it was taken. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following census information regarding Linda and her family: 1870 census of Mansfield Township, NJ: Henry AARONSON, age 31, a Farmer, born NJ Eleanor M. AARONSON, age 38, Keeping House, born NJ Linda AARONSON, age 5, born NJ Samuel AARONSON, age 2, born NJ 1880 census of Mansfield, NJ: Henry B.
