rinear family is also related to the brown family-i am looking for that info- cyrus brown- and the fountain family lived on main street and there were twin girls and another girl=if you dont know how to contact any of them, let me know=linda native of matawan

I want to thank Norman (sorry, I forgot the "n" in your name in the previous email), Charlene and Blair for their suggestions on how to find my great grandmother, Minni Vonah Keim. She seems to be a mystery that's going to take a while to solve, but it's well worth the wait:) Debbie

I do not think Rosehill is primarily a Catholic Cemetery. Matawan is not in the Asbury Park area. Good Luck Barbara B. Gill

Hello all....is Rosehill cemetary a Catholic cemetary? Thanks for your response. Still trying to find out the names of Catholic cemetaries in the Asbury Park area...Thanks

LOL :) :) :) BARB

Thanks Barbara - my apologies for the blank response - still having technical problems - I think my mouse is worn out. Kit

Rose Hill Cemetery Company 295 Main Street P.O. Box 304 Matawan NJ 07747 I also have relative interred in i Rose Hill Cemetery. My GGGGrandparents, GGGrandparents and Grandparents. Good Luck in your search The people in the office are quite helpful. God Bless Barbara B. Gill

Hello, I had unsubscribed for a while and due to technical problems I can't find the address for the contact for information for Rosehill Cemetery in Matawan. Would someone be so kind as to e-mail it to me. Also, does anyone know if either the Matawan or Monmouth County Historical Society has a complete listing of the older interments - since it is still an active cemetery. My husband and I visited the Cemetery recently, looking for a grave that was supposedly toward the back of the cemetery. We will have to ask for more specific information. Although I had lived in Matawan for two years I did not realize the size of the cemetery. I had only seen what you can see from outside the fence off Ravine Drive. We actually drove through most of the cemetery. I saw a lot of familiar names in his family tree. We shot two rolls of film - for gravestones that are definitely relatives and a lot of maybes. There are a lot of those older white stones lying on the ground that are becoming unreadable. We tried photographing one earlier this month and it didn't come out. We tried again, hopefully this one will. It is not an ancestor, but definitely part of our collateral family tree. If someone needs information from this cemetery and they are of an extremely patient nature - then I will try to oblige them if I can. I will have to wait until my husband is again available to drive me through the cemetery due to the size and the landscape. I do not wish to drive our car on those narrow stone paths, with steep inclines. Names in our family include CONOVER, RINEAR, VanPELT and NIVISON - - we suspect that there is a connection between the NIVISON family and the FOUNTAIN family, but have not yet made it - can anyone tell us what the connection is? Many thanks for any help. Kit WILLMOT-Hickey, South Toms River, NJ

They have the 1920's but there are no indexes. You have to go year by year and by that time your time is up on the machine and you have wasted the day.

Dear Debbie, You might want to go to Trenton (NJ Archives) and look up Minni Keim's death date on microfilm there. Then you can look up her death certificate at the same time. However, I would call first, for two reasons: 1: they have just moved and may not be set up for that task yet and 2: you should make sure that the indexes go into the 1920's. Good Luck.

Thank you Norma. Any help would be appreciated. And thank you for the lead that you sent me Charlene. Debbie

You could look on the 1920 census. There is also a City Directory microfilm at the Asbury Park Library. I doubt you would find any records. I will look this up when I go again but don't know when it will be. I am interested in the Keim name because there is a relationship with our Marmaduke Wright.

Looking for information on the following Stevens family members: John L. Stevens b. 9 Nov 1823 m. Elizabeth Steward Charles P. Stevens b. 19 Aug 1828 m. Sarah M. Carson Thomas S. Stevens b. 29 Oct 1830 went by the name Stewart Stevens or T. Stewart Stevens in need of death dates, burial places ..they are not buried with family members in Emley's Hill Churchyard.

Does anyone happen to know the name of an orphanage that used to be located in Asbury Park around 1920? I think it might have been on Grand Avenue. My grandmother was sent there for a short time after her mother had passed away and I'm hoping to get some information on the death of her mother. My grandmother was very small and doesn't remember the year her mother, Minni Vonah Keim, died. Thanks. Debbie

I found a notation about White Family records on the Monmouth Genweb Archives: >From the White family Records: "Ages of William and Susan E. White's Children" Does anyone know where this record is? Thanks, Suzanne

To the person who asked me about Polands in Bradley Beach some time ago. An Al Poland, age 84 just passed away last Sunday. It did not list any survivors. However, I just found out from an informed source that he was the son of Charles Poland, the former Police Chief.

Thanks. I am interested in the Conover information from the Freehold Burying ground. Thanks so much COURTNEY WILSON

If you can wait till I get back to the Asbury Park Library I will look it up. It will not be for a while though.
