I great resource are The Library of Congress American Memory Online Collections (http://memory.loc.gov). From their homepage click on "Collection Finder" (http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/collections/finder.html) and then under "Original Format" click on "Photos & Prints". In the search box enter your terms (eg., gloucester new jersey) and choose to "match all of these words". I used those terms and got 42 hits -- including items like "Friends Meetinghouse, 120 N. Broad St., WOODBURY, Gloucester County" and "Whitall House, Delaware River & Hessian Ave., NATIONAL PARK, Gloucester County". -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Malcolm Schalick Sharp http://sharp.rootsweb.com -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Janet T.

Someone has to have old archive photos from the local newspapers of the day. Correct me if I'm wrong, wasn't there a change of counties for Gloucester city. I don't recollect what the local newspapers were named during the times in question but I think it would be a resource worth looking into. -- Ed Purdy
