Hello Bob, I graduated from Bridgeton High School in 1947 and have my copy of "Baconian" on the bookshelf. If anyone is interested, I'll post a message with a list of class names. I was born (1928) and raised in Bridgeton and remember Mabel Alexander (Problems in American Democracy or PAD), Preston Sellers (Physics) and Harry Smalley (Principal). There was a Mrs. Lore, our class advisor and the Bradway sisters, Minnie and Mary. Like you, I recognized many of the surnames in Keith's list below. Many of them are repeated in my yearbook. Our families have been in south Jersey forever. Wil Husted Wilfred M.

I noticed a Husted posting, who said he grew up in Bridgeton. Charles L. Husted shows up at age 10, in the 1920 Census in Millville. He is living with (my) Margaret Langley Gifford Sheppard and her second husband, Jacob Sheppard. The census taker called Margaret "Mary," and he called Charles a grandson. Maybe Charles was a child of a daughter of Jacob, but the L. middle initial makes me curious if Charles was a Langley descendant.
