Could anyone please tell me where these towns are now and any background on the West Jersey Province. Is it part of PA now or did it become part of NJ? Thank you for a history lesson on early PA/NJ! >> Was Mary born in USA? There's a Maidenhead in the county of Berkshire, England. It's northwest of London. Apryl
