Shawn Thanks so much for the reminder about the NJ Digital Highway... Unfortunately, I tried to find it today - and it seems to have hit a pothole! It is (according to a cached page) "Offline from 9am - 5pm 3/7/2007 for software upgrades." So - for anyone trying to find it today - try again tonight or tomorrow! Regards, Joan Joan M.

Michelle Chubenko posted this info over on the NJGEN list and I thought many of you here might find it interesting. Nice to see more NJ images being posted on the web.

While some counties that I checked have no material available (Warren, Sussex, Hunterdon), others like Atlantic and Hudson have thousands of digitized items online. You can check your county using their browse by county feature: http://www.njdigitalhighway.org/browse/map.php Or, you can perform keyword searches using the boolean search engine: http://www.njdigitalhighway.org/search/index.php While not everything online is genealogical in nature, the variety in content is amazing.

Hi If they were Roman Catholic the church they probably attended would have been Our Lady of the Valley at Valley St Orange NJ. If they were Anglo Catholic the church would have beeen All Saints' Church corner of Forest and Valley Sts Orange, NJ. Our Lady of the Valley had a high Irish parishoner enrollment. I am the Parish Administrator at All Saints if they attended there I would Have the r4ecords and would look them up. Let me know. --------------------------------- Need Mail bonding? Go to the Yahoo!

Wilson, Yes, I agree it is not the easiest place to do research. I have deed material for the 1800's but not much earlier. In terms of churches, the Hanover Presbyterian Church has been wonderful. Fortunately a few of my folks were members, primarily Aaron Tompkins' daughter, Sarah, and her husband Ezra Beach in the early 1800's. Other Beaches and Morehouses earlier. The first of Aaron's three marriages has been noted at the First Presbyterian Church of Morristown in 1759. I wish I had the same level of information on the Presbyterian church of Caldwell. I think Aaron played a role in that church in 1779, but I haven't located any marriage records. The early records on my Lutheran families in Hunterdon county were certainly more extensive. Thanks for the comments. Beverly ----- Original Message ----- From: Wilson Brown To: Beverly Porter Sent: Thursday, March 01, 2007 2:03 PM Subject: Re: [NJESSEX] Early Wills 18th Century NJ is one of the most difficult areas to research. Both your Roberts and Tomkins families settled near my Brown family, but I have a pile of questions I can't answer. Causes: (1) the deed book (Deed book A) was stolen, destroyed, lost or something, so all the early deeds through 1790 are pretty much lost. An index survives, and often the deeds were cited in later documents, but that is very partial, (2) Often the deeds themselves were never registered anyway, (3) The early Congregational turned Presbyterian churches would only baptize children of their communicants, who were a restricted group who could somehow demonstrate that they were among the Chosen. (4) Very few old church records remain in any case, but you may luck out if you are after a Dutch family because the Dutch Reformed Church kept records and many of their records were preserved (Belleville or 2nd River). (5) The custom of writing in Bibles is mostly from the late 18th and 19th centuries. Unless the family has reconstructed the past, you are out of luck. Wilson >>> "Beverly Porter" <bporter@comcast.net> 03/01/07 12:04 PM >>> Thanks, Wilson. That's about what I feared, but I thought it was worth a try.

Hello Everyone, Strong postings with the letter 'H' this past week. Time to move on to the letter 'I'. Let's start posting surnames that start with the letter 'I'. RULES: ======================================= 1. Your subject line: [NJESSEX] [I] SURNAME - city So if you are researching the surname IRVING in Newark your subject line should read [NJESSEX] [I] IRVING - Newark or if you have a timeframe it could also be [NJESSEX] [I] IRVING - Newark (1880-1900) 2. Maximum time devoted to a single letter with be 1 week 3. Minimum time will be 48-hours if there's not a lot of activity or response 4. Surnames should be all CAPS to stand out 5. If you have a long surname then keep the subject line short. Long subject lines will get cut-off by your email program. Reserve important details for the text in the body. 6. Body - be precise. List pertinent names, dates, events, questions in the body text. 7. Important: list dates/years if known. Your John Anderson born in 1900 will not be the same as someone elses John Anderson born in 1875. But without any dates noone will know. 8. When replying about any NAME asked for, reply to the LIST, not just to the sender. Members who may have ancillary connections, will get the benefit. And we'll make new friends as well! 9. Finally, close your email with your name and your email address. 10. HAVE FUN !!!!!! If you have any questions, PLEASE, don't hesitate to contact me. Have fun posting!

This is a vast family, and I want to zero in on a couple of things. 1. I would like info about his parents, Edward Hedden and Jane Jones, and their European origins. 2. I seek info about Joseph's second marriage, to Abigail Huntington 1724-1760, and the children from that marriage. One of their daughters, Elizabeth Hedden b. @ 1758, was my 4G grandmother.

My grandfather James J. Hesson lived on 144 SValley Rd in West Orange NJ. My grandmother Winifred died of cancer in 1929. She died at her sister's house (Claire Boyle Jehle). My uncle Georgie committed suicide in 1935 because according to a cousin he got in with the Irish mafia and was caught and put in jail where he committed suicide. John Hesson who was married to Viola Ekborn at the time took in William who was 15. John's own children were John R, WilliamV and Eileen Grace Hesson. John in 1930 lived at 842 19th St in Newark. He was in WWI and marched in Newark when he returned.My grandmother's sister Mary Ellen Underwood also lived in Newark at 120 Harrison St in 1930. They were all Catholic. I have not been able to locate William V, John R or Eileen. My father said at one time that there was something about Georgie Hesson in the newspaper but the Newark Public library seemed to have nothing. If anyone has any ideas on how I can get more information about my ancestors, let me know. Winnie
