    1. [TNMACON] Your New Jersey ancestors need your help
    2. If you have New Jersey ancestors you need to read the below info and visit the website. >>>The State of New Jersey is trying to complete a turnpike project. In doing so the future of a cemetery is at stake. A descendant of one of the 3500 or even possibly 9000 burials in the cemetery has been fighting the various levels of government in order to save the cemetery. It is my understanding that the those involved with the project were going to remove any remains and bury all in one great big mass grave and not make any attempt to notify the descendants/relatives. There is a website which has numerous articles and other information. Your support is needed. There are two ways to speak up and have your voice heard: 1) download a printable petition and obtain signatures, or 2) sign an online petition. I hope that those who have ancestors in the State of New Jersey will support the effort in saving this cemetery. If you don't have ancestors or relatives in New Jersey, then consider the fact that it could happen to a cemetery where your ancestors are buried. The website address is - www.graveinfo.com
