    1. [NJSUSSEX-L] Addition to my web site

    3. Hi, folks... I've added another page to my web site. In 1804, under pressure mostly from Quakers, New Jersey began to gradually abolish slavery. Any child born to a slave in the state was to be registered, and at the age of 21 (females) or 25 (males), the child was to be freed. A listing of slaves born and registered, and their owners, in Sussex and Warren Counties from 1804 to 1833 can be found at http://RAUB-and-more.com/slavebirths.html Jan Reuther http://RAUB-and-more.com
