    1. Good Luck Cemetery
    2. Is there anyone out there who knows ANYTHING about this cemetery? I have a whole slew of Rogers buried there but only have an alphabetical listing of the cemetery. I'm specifically interested in ASENATH ROGERS d. 1870. I would like to know who (if anyone) she is buried next to or near. I'm out in the Midwest now and don't know when my next visit to NJ will be. I've hit such a brick wall with this Roger family in Ocean County!! Any sort of information on this cemetery (i.e. history of it) would be wonderful. Thanks for listening, Susan

    2. Debbie Price
    3. Hello to all, Does anyone out there know of the Methodist or Baptist churches that were around Jackson Twp area in the 1850's? I am having a hard time trying to find the marriage record for my great great grandparents Moses Leming/Lemon/Lemmon and Mary Elizabeth Havens. Thought I could check to see if they belonged to one of the churches and they might have the record. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Debbie Price price1234@tnns.net

    2. cherylnatriello
    3. A while back someone mentioned a marriage with a John Spragg/Sprague and a Sarah Seamon? My computer crashed and I lost this....Does anyone have a date for this marriage? My ancestor is Phebe Spragg who married Doughty Reed in, Monmouth County...her parents according to Reed Bible records were John and Sarah Spragg. This area is now a part of Ocean Co.. I found Doughty Reed mentioned in the dockets of Silas Crane, (Stafford Township) in an article by Frederic M. Cramer in the Genealogical Magazine of New Jersey. There are a number of Spragg's , Seamon's in these dockets as well. Has anyone ever checked the dockets in Rutger's /Special collections for Spragg information? While I'm at it I'll mention other surnames in the abstracts: Mick Redley Smith Cramer Rogers Mills Prine Burr Deacon Mott Cox Pharo Gaskiel Southard Spragg Havens Hornor King Lester Falk Reed Bodine Mulliner Arnold Conklin Carr Cook Carter Ginings Moore Randolph Jones Cristian Wright Parson Honreat Lungen Sammons Wolston Inman Collins Ridgway Seamon Headly Newbold Southwick Gray Letts Hazelton Crane Layrd Corlis Pedgon Paul Truax Kerby Wills Haywood Burdsall Camborn Montgomery Anderson Wight Devinia Wilits Soper Soyer Brown Oliphant Kelly Aelsworth Kirby Bogar Craft Rulong Lamson Peacock Robeson Hains Miller Hambelton Dates for these abstracts were (1813-1816) the other docket covers 1817-1820.
