It includes approximately 2,000 names of the earliest inhabitants of the provinces of East and West New Jersey and others from 1704 through 1770, collected from nearly a thousand news accounts of life in colonial America, not previously published this century. Sometimes quaint and linguistically fascinating in their own right, these accounts retell the sensational news of the day (the Indian and pirate attacks, for example) together with the ordinary, the \"help wanted\" columns and \"real estate for sale\" notices, news reports from the medical, legal, and educational spheres of society, colonial weather accounts, even early puzzles and more. There are headline type stories, describing crime in the colonies, shipwrecks, fatal accidents, slave insurrections and land riots. Other narratives depict the rural life of the Provinces of East and West New Jersey, the whales caught off its shores, the wild animals that attacked the colonists, and life on the \"plantations.\" Even obituaries and early \"letters to the editor\" reflect the values that society thought desirable. And, unmistakable throughout, is the American's sense of personal liberty and his growing dissatisfaction with Parliament's infringement of his rights as an Englishman. A Glance Back in Time is the result of research into more than twenty thousand news reports dealing with New Jersey during its colonial period, 1704-1770.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRichard B.

Family histories, like precocious children, always challenge their authors with more and more questions. Paul C. Van Dyke discovered this fact when he wrote a genealogy of his branch of the Van Dyke family in the late 1950s. That project led Mr. Van Dyke to explore and research the whole history of the Van Dyke family in America. This excellent book, based on primary sources recounting the Dutch settlement of New Jersey, is the fruit of those years of research. It is fundamentally a Dutch-American history. Incorporating a wide variety of historical accounts, original documents and illustrations, Mr. Van Dyke has written a compelling and richly informative account of nine generations of Van Dykes and the nearly three centuries of American history that serve as a backdrop. Thomas Van Dyck of Amsterdam was the 16th-century patriarch whose story opens the book, and the author also includes helpful background information on Holland's golden age of exploration and the Dutch East India Company. Thomas' son, Jan Van Dyck, and his family immigrated to New Amsterdam in 1652, eventually settling in New Utrecht on Long Island. Jan Jansen Van Dyck was the third generation, and his son John Van Dyck participated in the large Dutch migration (c.1711) to the Millstone Valley in Middlesex and Somerset Counties in the prerevolutionary province of New Jersey. The subsequent generations of Van Dyck farmers in New Jersey were well-respected, patriotic members of such communities as New Brunswick, Princeton, Trenton, Ten Mile Run, Penns Neck, Rocky Hill, Harlingen, Griggstown, Bridgepoint, Kingston, Millstone, Somerville, Franklin, Montgomery and West Windsor. When they deemed the time appropriate, some of these hard-working and versatile Dutch broke with the farm tradition to enter upon various commercial occupations and the professions, as exemplified in the final chapter and appendices of the book. Every chapter opens with a genealogical note that provides vital statistics such as birth, marriage and death dates. The names of spouses and children are always included in the narrative accounts of the subjects. Numerous appendices furnish additional details, often through transcriptions of original wills, deeds, military records, etc. A bibliography and separate indices for subjects and surnames are included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaul C.

This peninsula is now populated by quiet stately homes and estates, but was not always so. Known as Monmouth County's \"Plymouth Rock,\" this location was the landing place for the first settlers in the region, and a major gateway for trade, in addition to being the site of battles at least three times in the War for Independence. Thus it seemed a promising site for an archaeological dig, and the author secured permission from the landowners and began to dig. Excavating each summer for seven years, Mr. Marrin spent the winters researching archives and records for further clues. Likewise, the chapters in this book alternate between accounts of the digs and findings, by year (presented as letters to the landowners), and accounts of the history of this area, traces of which were sought and found. This kind of search combines the written record, which is available to everyone, with the physical evidence, which the ground grudgingly yields only to the patient archaeologist. Archaeological digs, like gold prospecting, offer the prospect of the Big Find that no one else has seen. Anyone who has been involved in field archaeology has felt this in varying degrees, and will enjoy this account, as will anyone curious about the history of this part of New Jersey.
