Randall, I'd love to hear more details of how and why Horner is a biased jerk. Does anyone else have an opinion about him? Anyone else think he's biased? Give me examples.

I should take another look at him. It has been so many years. Most major libraries in Monmouth County have the standard references. Visitors and researchers may wish to visit the Middletown Public Library at 55 New Monmouth Road. The $8.5 million expansion and total renovation includes a New Jersey History Room. On-line services include ProQuest and History Quest, both available for in-library use only, although many on-line resources are available to cardholders at home. Visitors apply at the reference desk for a temporary card number for that day to use the computers. Visit the library at mtpl.org. Randall Gabrielan
My take is that he was a product of his time. Historical and genealogical reporting has changed greatly over the years. Don't judge Hornor's style by what you now know.
