The Vaterdam was owned by the Hamburg-American Line and sailed from
Hoboken. It was commissioned just two years after the Titantic sank and
first arrived in Hoboken in the summer of 1914. She was the largest ship
afloat for a time. Left at Hoboken by her German owners, when WWI started,
she was later seized by the US and became the Leviathan. In later years,
between 1934 and 1938, she was laid up at 2nd Street, Hoboken, due to the
Depression before being sold off to shipbreakers in Scotland.

I just received a copy of my grandparents' 1925 marriage
record and am confused as to whether my grandfather
resided in Bergen or Hudson county at the time of the
marriage.
His residence is noted as "251 Columbus PL, Hudson
Heights, Bergen Co., NJ". I did a search on Hudson
Heights and it comes up as being in Hudson County.
Can anyone clarify? Thank you so much.

Hi all,
Do you have any idea what kind of materials might be available at the fair? I am
trying to get my daughter who lives up there to go but she is very "un-genealogy"
and has no idea what she would be looking for. I am in South Florida but wishing
I could be there.
Any clues would be appreciated.
Thanks, Barbara

This Sunday, May 2 is the perfect time to explore your Hoboken and Hudson
County Roots at the Hoboken Art & Music Festival. The Festival is on
Washington Street between 1st and 7th Street from 11am to 6pm. There will
be many tables selling Hoboken and Hudson County memorabilia including
tables for the local library and the Hoboken Historical Museum. This is
one of the best street fairs in the state. Special performances by The
Drifters and Skanatra (you must see them to believe it).

Hi,
Saw your post about Van Ripers---My mother graduated from Dickinson HS in
about 1934 and a good friend of hers was Howard Van Riper. I have tried
like mad to make contact with any of his family and have met with no luck.
Are you (I hope, I hope) related to him in some way?
Thanks,
Mary Wilson

Also, again, does anyone have in their family or are reseaching:
