All,
Saturday morning Scott (RednekF350 ), Dave ( Hinchman's Hill ), and I met at the Library if you will of Jerseyman. He was very kind in offering his many resources for study. A perfect gentleman and generous host, he answered any and all questions with patience and eerily was able to with what seemed
effortless skill reach for a book, pull out a map or any reference to answer a question in seconds.
We all three had some like and unlike interests and searches and believe me when I tell you, his years of collecting and research pays off. I myself was able to fill in a few holes in an area of interest and learn a little more about fellow whose namesake road is one of my top interests. The ability to view and put hands on maps like in his collection is invaluable in itself. I do not think you could find an offering like this just about anywhere with a host capable of presenting as he does.
It was fun to speak on each of our related histories, backgrounds, and heck even our health. While the day was ripening up to fine proportions outside, the atmosphere inside was cheerfull as well. Information flowed and anecdotes were exchanged. We really do exist in an area of rich history (not everthing about Jersey sucks folks) and we should be aware of it. What in industry alone this region and it's generations of people and resources offered to all is staggering.
This site is a great tool for such and collections like Jerseyman's are not as easy to come by anymore. Take advantage of every tool you are offered
folks. Always remain the student.
All in all it was Good Fellas I had company with on Saturday morn' and I'm glad for it.
Thank you Jerseyman.
