    1. [NJMIDDLE] New England origins

    3. Those of us researching early N.J. families have to remember not to ingnore New England origins. I just received the current "Great Migration Newsletter" Vol. 8, No. 2, [published by NEHGS], and the lead article is entitled "New England in New Jersey". Robert Charles Anderson discusses, in general terms but with citations, the various migrations to Elizabeth, Woodbridge, Piscataway, Middletown, Shrewsbury and Newark, mentioning such familiar names as John Baker, John Ogden (Elizabeth), Pike, Bishop, Jacques, March, Dennis, etc. (Woodbridge), and Martin, Gilman, Dunn and Hull (Piscataway) -- among many others. I recommend getting hold of a copy -- it gives good foundational background for consideration of these areas. [You might also benefit from Anderson's comments on our old "friend" Orra Eugene Monnette]. Harman Clark
