Hello to all I found some good discussions here regarding Dover Forge and Hollow Field Cemetery which I stumbled upon while searching google under Dover Forge. My husband's ancestors worked in Dover Forge and may have even had a road named after one of the men, called Guise's Road (after...

Hi ya all I have signed on as a new member but don't really qualify as such. I had been lucky to get out with the group a few times in the past but unfortunately reinjuried my ankle which has kept me inside a lot. I wanted to add to the Dover Forge discussion which I will do under Ghost Towns...

Hello to all I have just rejoined the group. Wow- the site has changed and really looks great. So, as a new member again, I could use some help navigating thru the site. I had gone out a few times with the group abt. a year or two ago and when I did, I found there was no better group then...

I have read about an Indian Burial Ground off of Rt. 539, off of Sim Place and Stevenson Rd. back in the woods about 1/4 to 1/2 mile away. I believe this is considered Warren Grove. Does anybody know about the burial ground or does anybody live in this area? I have passed Sim Place and know...

Guy I couldn't get the pictures when I clicked onto them. Is there a different way I can get them? What are the directions to Indian Mills? I've read about the area and would like to go there. Is there still a cemetery there? Genie

Oh My. What a discussion, but it has opened my eyes. Yes, I do see all the ramifications of using an ATV properly and where one should be riding. So the best bet would to make sure you are licensed and registered and then find the ORV Park in which to ride. I wouldn't want to be known as an...

Does anybody know what places are really good to go riding with your Quads in the Barrens? We are getting another Quad and live right on the woods and go riding in Asarco but we are looking for other places to go exploring without trespassing. Any suggestions? Genie

Well look who it is again. Marilyn Schmidt was in the Home and Garden section of the OC Observer with another book. The article was in March 28th issue. Here's another book I will have to get. How does your garden grow? Well, I try to have a flower garden and vegetable garden every year and I'm...

This might be a little outside the Pine Barrens but has anybody heard of Turkey Hill in Burlington or Mercer Co? It looks like a good spot to go camping and you can bring your dogs. I found sites on the computer that told about finding Indian relics in that area. Does anybody have any info about...

Marilyn is an interesting lady. Wish I could have her jobs. I want her other book "How to write your Own Cookbook" as we are thinking about putting some Piney recipes together. My husband's cousin's wife works with the lady who runs the restaurant. Have to get the scoop. Since Marilyn is such an...

Bob - I was hoping you would find more camping places that you can take your dogs to. I had checked your camping site here and they are all still State. My brother-in-law wants to do some camping with us and group and he doesn't go anywhere without his Papillon. I am also thinking about getting...

Barry - I emailed you a handful of times about a 1-1/2 yrs ago on your website, not the one on Yahoo; although I was scouting around on that particular one today. Could you send me your website again (wasn't it like Barry'sHomepage?) to GenieLou2@aol.com. You had some other websites on there...

I don't see a lot of discussion here about our Drought situation and wondered what people are thinking. I remember early this month there was talk in the papers about tapping the underground water reserves. Where exactly is the Kirkwood-Cohansey acquifer? I know there is something like 18...

My husband and I took a little ride to Chatsworth today and stopped for breakfast at Buzby's Store. I had a nice chat with Marilyn Schmidt. Dropped a few names of oldtimers and heard some stories. I told her I had found your site and she mentioned you had been in recently. I picked up a few more...

This is good to see a list of recommended reading of the Pines. I didn't read this before I mentioned my "couple" of books. Looks like this list will keep somebody busy. Im going to print this out to keep. I have decided to partially slide away from my genealogy work and detailed history reading...
