City Directories have been around for a long time and have a lot of good information. Hope this is helpful...

In the next 6 weeks you may have one or more opportunities to sit down with older family members and/or friends of the family whom you seldom see. Take advantage of the time available to do some interviews. Make the time to prepare yourself with some friendly questions to get the nostalgia flowing. Make sure you have pen and paper, laptop or "tape" recorder to record the information. Ancestry Daily News 2/19/2001 - Archive €Interview Questions When interviewing family members, whether it be in person, by phone, or by mail, it is helpful to come up with a list of questions beforehand. Here are some questions that can help get the interview rolling and possibly provide you with leads on where to look for new records: * Where did you grow up? * How long did your family live in the area(s)? * Were there other family members in the area?

Where did he work? * Did your mother work? Where? * Did you work?

While it might be fascinating to trace other descendents at the moment I'm more interested in their ancestors. I have not gotten back further than Reuben and Sarah yet, and I'm trying to find out any information about their parents or futher back ancestors. Has anyone any information about them? Thanks so much.

Hello All, I have scanned the final 22 pages of the book "The Story of Dunellen" and posted it to my website for anyone interested.
