I’m also a big fan of Darn Tough wool socks. Over the years they have become the only socks I wear. One pair of Darn Toughs will outlast 10 pairs of cotton socks. They have varying lengths and thickness but I tend to like the crew length. Darn Tough (Style #1466) Men's Merino Wool Hiker...

No sooner than posting this, I figured it out. Their page is wrong. The actual URL is: http://ccarchive.co.burlington.nj.us/NewViewer.aspx I’ll leave my post here in case anyone else gets tripped up on this in the future. I’ll delete it if they fix their page.

Hi all, I was trying to access Burlington County property records before 1965 and was going to this page: https://press.co.burlington.nj.us/Press/clerk/ClerkHome.aspx?op=basic You will see on that page, it refers you to: http://itmb01v/imagesync/Login.aspx Which, if I click on it, I get...

I've mentioned that I've been working on written history of Hampton, and a couple people asked about it so I thought I would give an idea of what I've been thinking about. In addition to the written text, I've have had in my mind to try to create some sort of visual picture of what it was like...

I had not seen this before, no! You’re right, it is strikingly clear. It is all there in 1940 and all gone by 1951. It answers some questions, but then prompts some more for me to run down! Great stuff.

Thanks! You hand traced them! I’m even more impressed. Yes, I I preferred the light theme and that is why I was looking at the 2017 vs 2020, but I’ll use 2020 from now on.

As you might have seen in another post I've been gathering history on Hampton and one of the things I have been trying to figure out is: what structures were present during which eras. (I.e. pre-iron age, iron age, cranberry era, etc). I came across these structures in your NJ Boyd Topo...

I just wanted to pop in and say not only thank you for this, but thank you in general for Boydsmaps! This has been become a permanent feature of my GIS toy box. :-) I was looking at something last night and woke up this morning and remembered this post and thought, "hey that feature would come...

Were you wondering if Mary Shinn is possibly also Mary Cavileer? If so, I would say doubtful. Restore and Mary sold the property in 1795 and according to this Shinn family tree, she died in 1804. The reference above is from 1824 and the furnace was only established after they sold. I'm not...

When I saw this book reference, I added to my list to find. :-) You mentioned it was in the public domain, but I don't see it available online anywhere?

Well, yes, “publish” as in offer to see if Ben wants to host it here. :) I only get to work on it in my limited spare time so to might take a bit. According to Family Empire in Jersey Iron 1964, Pierce said the "gate" in Hampton Gate refers to a physical gate that existed at the end of the...

Coincidentally I was also researching Hampton and Hampton Gate today and came here to post and saw this! If this is it, what an incredible find! I have been writing my own version of the history of Hampton, based on various sources and I have been also working on a map of the various known...

I was researching Hampton and Hampton Gate and in Forgotten Towns of Southern NJ, Beck describes coming into Hampton Gate and he talks to someone in a "tiny unpainted house in front of a more modern building, the Vineland Hunting Club". There doesn't seems to be any trace online of a "Vineland...

I did not know this! I think I had asked who Mannis was way back when and no one had an answer for me. I must have driven past this sign a million times and never realized the answer was right under my nose: https://www.hmdb.org/m.asp?m=79511 Thanks Guy! Just curious, how did you learn this...

Took a hike there today and it is very low. It doesn’t look like the water has bypassed the dam, in fact, I don’t see any water flowing downstream anywhere. Maybe beavers blocking it upstream? I seem to remember seeing a post on this somewhere, but couldn’t seem to find it. Any ideas? Dam...

Yes, this true. So far, Shamong, Waterford and Mullica passed resolutions against the State’s plans.

Can you PM me the location of the pond? I'd like to grab an "after" picture before too many more leaves fall. Might be helpful to show these projects work.

Ok, got it. I re-exported them all and that seemed to work. Thanks!

Not sure why two of them show up as "attachments" instead of being embedded in the post....
