3. Re: [NJHUNTER] Tombstone Repair [1]
Perhaps this site can direct you to the information you need: http://www.gravestonestudies.org/index.htm I noted, however, that they give directions for resetting a gravestone in a new concrete base and last week I talked to a woman who studies 18th c. gravestones (and is affiliated with an NYC museum). She said that the concrete in a new base can wick moisture from the ground right to the gravestone, thereby hastening its decay, so that is not a recommended procedure. She advised finding a knowledgeabl

Hi Jeff' Our paths cross again and thanks. Jack and Marianne Dibean fwded a message that I presume you sent into MI-MIGRATIONS about James Woolley and his obituary in the Elsie Sun. This is one of those ambiguous but tantalizing bits of info for me because I am trying to determine if he (James Wooley) is linked to John K. Wooley (Brother) and other Wooley's of Elsie, Clinton, Michigan. One would think so but I've not yet established any relationship. The mention in the article of two brothers and the writer

Hi Listers, I would appreciate it so much if you all could give me some help. I had a screen saver, which I thought I had gotten from the Hunterdon Co. web site and dearly loved. About two week ago I had a complete crash on my computer and lost everything not on disk. I have roots in NJ and the s.s. showed pictures of a beautiful old church which was painted white and small cemetery, covered bridge, maybe a mill with man made water fall and two or three other scenes. I have searched everywhere trying to fin

8. [NJHUNTER] Re: Slave surnames [1]
John, To add to what Dennis Reiley posted, a very common source for a slave's surname was that they belonged to that family or had been a slaves of that family for a long time or for many generations . Even after sale to someone else, slaves maintained these surnames, for example, a slave named Aaron Lake that I've researched in NJ was a slave of Elisha Clarke in Montgomery. To also use the example of Thomas Jefferson (and Sally Hemings) - the Hemings family was a slave family that existed within t

Karen, I thank you so very much for this info. My little grandson and I will be so happy to have our Hunterdon screen saver back again. It has such beautiful pictures from the county and is great for those of us who live so far away. Whenever I'm search church records etc. in Hunterdon that church always comes to mind.

12. Re: [NJHUNTER] Tombstone Repair [1]
This is just a suggestion. How about consulting with a reputable stone mason (there may be several listed your local phone book) who can explain the various characteristics of rock. It is always best to plan carefully to ensure that no unintentional harm is done. Beverly G.

18. Re: [NJHUNTER] Slaves and freed persons in Hunterdon [1]
First, I have never heard of census takers giving anyone a surname, although they are certainly responsible for numerous misspellings. A lot of slaves who were on the estates of some of the more enlightened owners chose to use the same surname because they respected that person. Others chose the surname of someone they respected including that of someone who assisted them in gaining freedom. The large numbers of Washington's, Jefferson's, etc. are primarily examples of choosing the surname of someone they

20. [NJHUNTER] Slaves and freed persons in Hunterdon [1]
While researching I came across several freed slaves with the same surname within the same vicinity as the surname I was researching. I have two questions: 1. Was it common for freed people (or slaves) to adopt the surname of their masters? And was it normal for the census takers to give freed slaves the surnames of their former masters? 2. Can someone give me information about getting slave manumission records in Hunterdon? Where are they located, etc. thanks, - john ---------------------------
