A 1922 PA license from when my grandfather was a forestry student at Penn State and hunted PA. Note that hawks and owls could be killed at any time with or without a hunting license. Also note that the bounty on wild cats was $8 and only $2 for a fox. And don't forget to report your hawk nd owl...

A few more pieces of NJ hunting history. 1916 and 1917 Game Laws published by a Camden gunsmith. Only 4 days of deer hunting and they were all Wednesdays. Interesting note: Hunting most small game species was illegal with a tracking snow on the ground.

I thank you Bob, that is very heart warming. In fact, I will drink to that tonight ! :guinness:

That makes me a stubborn drunk ! :)

Can I hear a few recommendations for a decent hosting site ? Free is always good but paying may be an option. I have used Photobucket for almost ten years but it seems like it has totally fallen apart in the last year or so. It is beyond slow now, bogged down with ads and its operability is...

He was on my father's side Bob. The surname Ivins is apparently Welsh. I was not linked to him by blood since my father's father died at a young age when my father was only 7. My grandmother remarried later. My blood grandfather was German. My mother's side of the family was 110% Irish. I traced...

Here are my grandfather' NJ licenses:

With all this "snow" you could probably canoe in from 206 today !

Your description is more better Al.

It's not easy to get to the general area or find the Swamp Monster. I no longer have an exact lat/lon in my handheld for it but the following two maps below will get you to it. You will absolutely need 4WD to get to the parking spot. Two weeks ago we went through two water filled truck eaters...

You should see some of these 46er. Most are in mint condition with crisp, raised municipal seals. Once I scan everything, I will post them on my Photobucket and link to that. Some of the PA licenses are cloth that you sewed to your coat.

Here's the 1915 license. $1 for hunting and fishing. Not a bad deal.

My father bought me a new H&R Topper 12 ga. single as my first gun when I was 10. That was about three years before I received my grandfather's H&R.

I am going to be contacting them to see if they would be interested in scans of my grandfather's licenses from the early 1900's. I have his 1915 hunting and fishing combined license. 1915 was the first year a fishing license was required for licenses. I have several NJ from that era. He was...

Just in case you need a fix Boyd, he's still very prolific on You Tube as PinePowerLI. :)

Perhaps the author should consider taking on a nom de plume. :D

Now I gotta go diggin'. I may still have the Argus.

Last week I though the road was going to be breeched. The pipes were submerged and water was disappearing in a vortex. In the last few days, there has been a major cleanup of the beaver deposited materials. The main bog is drained to a trickle and the pipes are functioning. I assume the Forest...

This what I saw at every family gathering...

Why does life have to be so complicated ? :)
