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...

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...

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...

Hello Group In Thursday's (3/7/02) Home & Garden section of the OC Obserser, there was an article "Pine Barrens' Top Picks". They portrayed Howard P. Boyd and his newest book called "Wildflowers of the Pine Barrens of New Jersey". That day I was over to the Ocean County Historical Society paying...

Any group dedicated to the Pine Barrons should know this story if they do not already but thought it worth repeating. Samuel Gordon Giberson (1808-1884) was a man who grew up in the Pines, spending time chopping wood and making charcoal which was the typical Piney occupation. What he liked the...

I had used Google and found your interesting site. Thanks guys, I had to cut and paste to the new Forum. For a couple of years, I had been researching my husband's family and throughout have come across Pine Barren & Piney sites. This is great to see an actual discussion forum. When using...
