Keep going -- I also saw the Union town and that is near Hackensack. Jersey City is a separate town. If you continue browsing the list you eventually get to West Hoboken and Emerson HS was located there. I was down there last year and have pictures of the Emerson High School if anyone is interested -- as well as other schools in the area and also St. Michael's Monastery and Roosevelt Stadium. Contact me and I can email to you if interested. Another good source for old pictures is eBay. Search for the town you are looking for and you can usually find old postcards -- I copy the pictures for archives or you can purchase the postcards -- there are some good vintage shots.
