(Cross posting)
Within the past few weeks someone posted a query about an Osmun/Osman family. I've tried retrieving it at the Rootsweb mailing list archives but haven't found it.
Could that person contact me?

Rochelle,
I will look for you on Thursday since I will be at the Hunterdon County
Historical Society that has the original copies of the Democrat. I'll take a
digital photo of the obits, if found, and send them to you via email.
Is the spelling correct for Cylinda Myers? I've never seen that one before!
Regards, Bill

There were 4 regiments to the Hunterdon County Militia. The best place to begin your search is in Stryker's, which can be extracted on http://www.geocities.com/dane97520/StrykerIndex.html but this on-line list only has those people specifically mentioned by Stryker as coming from Hunterdon or Somerset.
The other place to go is to the NJ State Archives. Once there, you can perform searches (by name) on different indices.
There are no good lists aside from these sources. A lot of records have been lost or

I am trying to find my John Hide/Hyde in the Rev. War. Was there a
Hunterdon Co. Militia? Where is the list? Stryker has a John Hide listed
as a Wagoner in the Somerset Militia. I am confused. Any help appreciated.

Rochelle,
I have look at the Hunterdon County Democrat for the obits you
requested. I found nothing on either person. I looked at the paper up to
8 weeks after the death date you provided.

Rose,
The Hunterdon County Democrat was started in 1838 and continues through
today. There were papers published prior to the Democrat. I believe the
Gazette was the earlier paper. There are other NJ papers (earlier) that
covered some Hunterdon County events but don't know the names. Bill
Hartman may be able to expand on this.
I have extract of the Democrat from 1838-1886 on my web page. You can
find it at:

Does anyone know the dates of publication of the Hunterdon Democrat? Also, were there any published newspapers prior to the publication of the Democrat, and if so, are there any copies anywhere? Thanks. Rose

Dennis: Thank you so much for the information. Your web site is marvelous. Thanks so much for doing all this work! My husband and I are hoping to visit Hunterdon County this fall. We plan to leave Alaska (our summer home) the first part of October, and drive from Texas (our winter home). Sure am anxious to do some digging. And, I appreciate your work a whole bunch. Thanks again, Rose

Hi Rose,
As Dennis mentioned in his email to you, there was an earlier newspaper in
Hunterdon County and it was the first, with the first issue in March 1825.
It continued until 1866 when it was purchased by the Democrat. I am indexing
and extracting via computer word document all of the news items pertaining
to people and events of Hunterdon County as it then existed. I have
completed 12 years and will soon have the Index on a Web site, hopefully
later this month. This will be followed by a CD which will
Would anyone have access to the Hunterdon County Democrat? I am looking for
two obituaries. The first is for JOHN MYERS who died Dec. 24, 1892, and for
Cylinda MYERS who died Nov. 7, 1895. Thanks

To Whom it may concern: My gr gr grandparents were married in Hunterdon
County. The information shows: Henry Pickle married Mary Smith Oct, 3, 1824
HCM Vol. 2 P. 263 by J. P. Stires. Is it likely that this reference would
show their parents? They were obviously members of the Lebanon Dutch
Reformed Church because their first five childtren were christened there.
Any clue you have would be great. Thank you. Geneva Damron
Hoping someone can help me.
In the book, "The Early Germans of New Jersey their History, Churches
and Genealogies" by Chambers, on page 37 it reads,
In Stillwater, Sussex Co. there was a Union Church as early as the
middle of the last century. Services in German were also held very early in
the neighborhood of Newton, Sussex county. And these churches were attended
by the following families: My ancestor being SWICK.
Can anyone tell me where I might find the records
