I am intrested in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormons) in NJ. My people from Tom's River joined this church and went to Utah. This was about 1850. ANYTHING about the church and its doings would be of interest to me. I have a picture of an ancestor I beleive was born in NJ. Sincerely, Susan Ottley Palmer

Hi, My Dad's family in Monmouth County goes back to at least before the Revolutionary War and my Dad (Arthur Davis IRWIN) was born and raised in Atlantic Highlands. Dad's Dad, Henry Arthur IRWIN, was the fire chief at one time (before 1937-he died young) and Henry's Dad, William P. IRWIN, was a judge, I understand. In 1963, NJ put a freeway through my grandmothers' home (Viola Davis IRWIN and Henrietta McCoy DAVIS) and they moved to FL. I haven't been back to NJ since, but now will have the opportunity to go New Year's Day and again Jan 4. My questions: Will there be anyplace open Jan 4th that might have records available? I hear there is an "Obadiah Stillwell Davis House".Do any of you know about this and if so, can it be visited? Any inexpensive motel recommendations? I am researching IRWIN, DAVIS, BENNETT, STILLWELL, MORRIS, PATTERSON, and McCOY. Thank-you for reading this and for any help you all might be able to give. Cherilu Irwin DuVal

Thanks to all on the list who responded to my question about Green Grove Cemetery. All of the responses were very helpful. Thanks again, Harry Ward

Harry I have a list that was complied in 2000 by Donna Renninger of those interned at Green Grove, Keyport, Monmouth County, NJ. Your Grandmother does not appear on that list.

upper freehold -- many thanks to Linda for posting the links to the "Manor of Buckhole" installments. through these postings I've seen many 'neighbors' [and possible relatives; all I'm missing is the proof]! the writer mentions Elizabeth Kirby Waldon ELY as being the neice of Frank Kirby, gdau of Elizabeth KIRBY [possibly Harriett Elizabeth?] & David G WALDON of Waldon's store. it seems 'everyone' knows the story of Frank Kirby [Robert Franklin 1842-1868] being struck by lightning, plowing or as he stood in his doorway. Frank was s/o Robert Franklin [1811-1891] & Elizabeth Moreland [1812-1884] KIRBY. Robert F 1811 is s/o Robert KIRBY 1765-1850 & Elizabeth unk 1771-1853. Robert Kirby is clearly on the Lightfoot map and the stories posted in the Manor of Buckhole follow the ownership through a few forward lines. going backward is where I could use some help... does anyone know who was the father of Robert KIRBY 1765 or who was his wife Elizabeth 1771? I've seen online where she might be Elizabeth LEMING. I keep reading & re-reading these excerpts. there may be clues in there for me to unravel some of my puzzle but they haven't jumped out at me just yet. anyone with old ties to this area or hints, tips or addresses of other researchers? even knowledge of *which* ELYs and KIRBYs married... it gets very confusing with repetition of pet names... I've been at this a while; and Robert 1765 is in my database but his connection is a shaky one. it is possible he is a son of my anc Thomas KIRBY b1722 but he's not in the Mary Kirby HOLMES bible; am open to any theories or examples to support or counter the idea! I'm working to determine *where* and 'whom' Thomas Kirby 1725 was from; I'm pretty sure his wife Elizabeth is the one mentioned in UF Baptist as having come from Cranbury in 1769, though I don't know her maiden name, either [poss DAVISON?]. my Thomas KIRBY family was definitely of Upper Freehold, Allentown/Hightstown area. I have an 1851 lightfoot map but my 'direct' kin had gone west by 1839 [so not there]. when they left they sold over 200 acres. thanks, anybody! hope I didn't put too much info out here, just trying to keep all the thomas, robert, william & elizabeths straight! kirby in NC kirbz@northstate.net

Is there someway to determine if this land was in what is now Clermont Co., OH? Or a nearby KY county? Pat

I've been doing some digging in the wee hours through HeritageQuest, and found some Rev War paper info that included land bounty info [i.e., William HOLMES 100 acres 1796; land warrants #8370 & 14141]]. now, is there somewhere I can 'go' to produce these numbers and get a piece of paper that contains more info, metes & bounds, or something? thx kirby in NC kirbz@northstate.net

You might try www.distantcousin.com. Pictures from Greengrove are on that site.

Pam, You can just send a look-up request to Linda Kay at Ocean County Historical Society. OCHS maintains an active obit file from the Press. An Ocean County obituary from 1996 should be in the files. Click here for more info: http://www.oceancountyhistory.org/Library/Research_policy.htm When I was research director I would take obit look-up requests over the phone with the request that the patron send us a $2 donation. It was preferred that any requests be in writing with a check to cover each request at $2 per look-up. But I don't know what Linda's policy is now, that's why I gave the link to OCHS.

Hi...about 6 months ago I read in this list that there was a way to write for obituaries from the Asbury Park Press microfilm at one of the area libraries. Could it have been the Ocean County Library? I need an obituary for Helen Bush Deck, wife or widow of Louis Deck, who died 4 March 1996 having resided in Pt. Pleasant Beach for many years. I realize that this is Ocean Co but perhaps someone has saved that email or could tell me where to write and the cost for each obit. Thanks, Pam Bush

My grandmother, Rose Micahelis Ward, died on May 15, 1916 in Keansburg, NJ. Her death certificate indicates that she was buried in Greengrove Cemetery, which, I understand, is in Keyport. I have tried to obtain a record of her burial but have been unsucessful. It may be that the cemetery is under new ownership and they do not want to deal with the old records. I would like to obtain her burial record and know if she has a tombstone. Is there anyone on the list in that area that might be able to assist me or tell me who I might contact to obtain this information? Thanks, Harry Ward
