Compendium of Archaeological, Cultural and Historical Literature Of COMPENDIUM OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL, CULTURAL AND HISTORICAL LITERATURE OF THE NEW JERSEY PINE BARRENS Kenneth Buchholz Ralph E. Good I Division of Pinelands Research COMPENDIUM OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL, CULTURAL AND HISTORICAL LITERATURE OF THE NEW JERSEY PINE BARRENS Compiled By Kenneth Buchholz and Ralph E. Good This supplement to the Compendium of New Jersey Pine Barrens Literature was prepared in the Division of Pinelands Research, Center for Coastal and Environmental Studies, Rutgers University, with support from the Victoria Foundation, the William Penn Foundation and Rutgers University, in cooperation with the New Jersey Pinelands Commission. July 1983 82-5720 Victoria Foundation, Inc. Pinelands Scientific Research Program (Good) COMPENDIUM OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL, CULTURAL AND HISTORICAL LITERATURE OF THE NEW JERSEY PINE BARRENS Kenneth Buchholz and Ralph E. Good Division of Pinelands Research Historical Consultant: David Glassberg Norbert P. Psuty, Director Center for Coastal and Environmental Studies Doolittle Hall - Rutgers University New Brunswick, New Jersey 08903 Preface PREFACE The earlier Compendium of New Jersey Pine Barrens Literature (Buchholz and Good 1982) was developed to provide an easy-access reference system for policy-makers as well as the scientific community, and to provide a means for identifying areas of current research needs and thus provide directions for future scientific investigation. That Compendium provided an extensive data base for the natural sciences (botany, agriculture, forestry, geology and soi Is, hybrology, meteorology and zoology) but did not include the social sciences. This Compendium of Archaeology, Culture and History Literature of the New Jersey Pine Barrens is the result of the desire to expand the data base to include the much-needed information on the social sciences. This Compendium, 1 ike its natural sciences counterpart, is an annotated bibl iography of archaeological, cultural and historical literature on the New Jersey Pine Barrens. The primary sources of information were an extensive literature search using avai lable bibliographies and reference citations from the literature, and the contributions of many individuals who provided information on more obscure references. The data base was compi led on the DEC-20 computer network and support facil ities of the Center for Computer and Information Services, Rutgers University. Computerization of the data base greatly facilitates the compilation and continuous updating required to maintain a current data base and allows for maximum speed and ease of information retrieval. During the year of compilation, approximately 800 literature citations were encountered, and the majority of these were reviewed by the compi ler. Some citations were unavailable for review, and the information presented is as complete as possible. This data base will be continuously expanded and updated as new or previously missed information becomes available, and future editions of this Compendium will reflect these changes. Acknowledgements We wish to extend our sincere appreciation to the numerous individuals and agencies who contributed significantly throughout this project. We gratefully acknowledge the Victoria Foundation for providing financial support throughout the compi lation, the New Jersey Pinelands Commission for their unyielding encouragement and for providing office and support faci I ities, and the Center for Computer and Information Services, Rutgers University, for providing computer time and support facilities. We gratefully acknowledge Bud Wilson, Barry Brady (New Jersey Pinelands Commission), Somers Corson (Cape May County Historical and Genealogical Society), David E. Fairbrothers, Lee Merri II and Beryl Robichaud (Rutgers University), Ted Gordon, Mary Hufford (American Folklife Center, Library of Congress), Jean Jones (Maurice River Historical Society), Pauline Miller and El izabeth Morgan (Ocean County Historical Society) for their constructive comments, critical reviews and contributions to the data base throughout the term of compilation. We sincerely appreciate the meticulous editorial reviews of the final draft by Will iam Bolger and Norma Good.

Bibliographic Sections. This Compendium consists of annotated reference citations presented under six bibliographic sections: General References, Landscape, Aboriginal Settlement, Industries, Community and Family Life, and Cultural Resource Surveys and Inventories. In each bibliographic section, references are presented alphabetically by authors' last names and chronologically by publication date. These sections are: 1. GENERAL REFERENCES contains multi-topic references and references which have a broader regional scope than the Pine Barrens. 2. LANDSCAPE contains travellers' descriptions and general accounts of the landscape and natural history of the Pine Barrens, including maps and land deeds. 3. ABORIGINAL SETTLEMENT contains all references pertaining to the I ives of successive groups of Pine Barrens inhabitants before European settlement, including language, customs, settlement patterns, religions, social structure and material culture. 4. INDUSTRIES contains historical accounts and descriptions of agricultural and industrial processes and other exploitations of Pine Barrens natural resources. 5. COMMUNITY AND FAMILY LIFE contains references which pertain primarily to the culture and society of the Pine Barrens inhabitants from first European settlement to the present, including reI igion, recreation, socio-economic structure, family life, government and mi I itary activities, ethnic settlement patterns and occupations, folklore, visual and performing arts, fraternal organizations. It lists biographies and diaries, government records, and local, county and regional historical accounts and collections. Introduction Page 2 6. CULTURAL RESOURCE SURVEYS AND INVENTORIES lists studies which catalogue and assess prehistoric and historic sites within the Pine Barrens. Many of these works are products of governmental EIS (Environmental Impact Statement) and societal surveys. Citations containing information appropriate for inclusion in two or more bibliographic sections are presented in full only in the most appropriate bibliographic section, and are cross-referenced in other sections by authors names, publ ication date and the bibliographic section in which the full annotated citation is presented. I I. Citation Format and Content. Reference citations are presented in the following formats: For Books: Author(s) Name(s). Original Publication Date (Reprint Publication Date, if appropriate) Full Title. Original Publisher/s Name and City/State Address. (Reprint Publisher's Name and City/State Address, if appropriate) Number of Pages. For Periodical Articles: Author(s) Name(s). Publication Date. Full Title. Publication Name, Volume Number: Inclusive Pages. Every effort was made to review each reference first hand and thus the majority of citations are complete. For those few citations which were unavailable for review, the citation contains as much information as was available. Information (such as publication date) followed by a parenthetical question mark indicates that the information has not been verified. Where appropriate, citations are annotated with additional information by: (A) Location: a list of place names discussed or research sites used in the citation. For locations within the Pine Barrens proper, each location is followed by a parenthetical map index number(s) referring to the specific 7.5 minute U.S.G.S. topographic quadrangle(s) in which the place is located. (B) Keywords: a list of selected subject keywords in Introduction Page 3 addition to those provided in the citation's title. (C) Synopsis: an abstract summary describing the general content of the citation. I I I. Appendix and Indices. One appendix and three indices are provided to supplement information retrieval. These are: (A) I nformat i on Sources Append i x. The primary focus of this Compendium is the published (llhardll ) literature of potential wide-spread availability - books, degree theses and dissertations, government publ ications of wide distribution, and journal, magazine and newspaper articles. The abundance, diversity and highly varied distributions of handwritten and typed manuscripts, personal letters, journals, diaries and correspondence, deeds and maps and other "soft" I iterature prohibited the inclusion of such materials in this data base. The exclusion of such information is not a reflection of its value; such sources of information represent very valuable resources. In this vein the Information Sources Appendix was compiled to provide an

In this committee, we will be looking at the Golden Age of Piracy, a period of history that has captured the imaginations of writers and filmmakers for decades. People have long been enthralled by the swashbuckling tales of pirates, their fame multiplied by famous books and movies such as Treasure Island, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Peter Pan. But more often than not, these portrayals have been misrepresentations, leading to a multitude of inaccuracies regarding pirates and their lifestyle. This committee seeks to change this. In the late 1710s, nearly all pirates in the Caribbean operated out of the town of Nassau, on the Bahamian island of New Providence. From there, they ravaged shipping lanes and terrorized the Caribbean’s law-abiding citizens, striking fear even into the hearts of the world’s most powerful empires. Eventually, the British had enough, and sent a man to rectify the situation — Woodes Rogers. In just a short while, Rogers was able to oust most of the pirates from Nassau, converting it back into a lawful British colony.

  • The Adorabyssal Oracle
    THE ADORABYSSAL ORACLE The Adorabyssal Oracle is an oracle deck featuring the cutest versions of mythological, supernatural, and cryptozoological creatures from around the world! Thirty-six spooky cuties come with associated elements and themes to help bring some introspection to your day-to-day divinations and meditations. If you’re looking for something a bit more playful, The Adorabyssal Oracle deck doubles as a card game featuring those same cute and spooky creatures. It is meant for 2-4 players and games typically take 5-10 minutes. If you’re interested mainly in the card game rules, you can skip past the next couple of sections. However you choose to use your Adorabyssal Deck, it is my hope that these darkly delightful creatures will bring some fun to your day! WHAT IS AN ORACLE DECK? An Oracle deck is similar to, but different from, a Tarot deck. Where a Tarot deck has specific symbolism, number of cards, and a distinct way of interpreting card meanings, Oracle decks are a bit more free-form and their structures are dependent on their creators. The Adorabyssal Oracle, like many oracle decks, provides general themes accompanying the artwork. The basic and most prominent structure for this deck is the grouping of cards based on elemental associations. My hope is that this deck can provide a simple way to read for new readers and grow in complexity from there. My previous Tarot decks have seen very specific interpretation and symbolism. This Oracle deck opens things up a bit. It can be used for more general or free-form readings, and it makes a delightful addition to your existing decks.

    MAY 27, 2019 KOREAN WAR FORGOTTEN - NO MORE MEN OF BURLINGTON COUNTY, NJ WHO WERE CASUALTIES IN THE 1 The Cover is of the Korean War Veterans Memorial (19 stainless steel statues). The statues were sculpted by Frank Gaylord of Barre, VT and cast by Tallix Foundries of Beacon, NY. They are approximately seven feet tall and represent an ethnic cross section of America. The advance party has 14 Army, 3 Marine, 1 Navy and 1 Air Force members. The statues stand in patches of Juniper bushes and are separated by polished granite strips, which give a semblance of order and symbolize the rice paddies of Korea. The troops wear ponchos covering their weapons and equipment. The ponchos seem to blow in the cold winds of Korea. NOTES This booklet was prepared on behalf of the Burlington County War Memorial Committee. It is interrelated to the Korean War Monument that was dedicated May 27, 2019. The men contained herein are those, from Burlington County, New Jersey, that are listed on the National Archives web site. https://www.archives.gov/files/research/military/korean-war/casualty-lists/nj-alpha.pdf The lists are based on the "home of record - state" data provided by the serviceman or woman upon last entrance into military service. "Home of record" does not necessarily refer to the place of birth, residence of next of kin, place of longest residence, nor other common uses of the term "hometown."

  • New Jersey State Research Guide Family History Sources in the Garden State
    New Jersey State Research Guide Family History Sources in the Garden State New Jersey History After Henry Hudson’s initial explorations of the Hudson and Delaware River areas, numerous Dutch settlements were attempted in New Jersey, beginning as early as 1618. These settlements were soon abandoned because of altercations with the Lenni-Lenape (or Delaware), the original inhabitants. A more lasting settlement was made from 1638 to 1655 by the Swedes and Finns along the Delaware as part of New Sweden, and this continued to flourish although the Dutch eventually Hessian Barracks, Trenton, New Jersey from U.S., Historical Postcards gained control over this area and made it part of New Netherland. By 1639, there were as many as six boweries, or small plantations, on the New Jersey side of the Hudson across from Manhattan. Two major confrontations with the native Indians in 1643 and 1655 destroyed all Dutch settlements in northern New Jersey, and not until 1660 was the first permanent settlement established—the village of Bergen, today part of Jersey City. Of the settlers throughout the colonial period, only the English outnumbered the Dutch in New Jersey. When England acquired the New Netherland Colony from the Dutch in 1664, King Charles II gave his brother, the Duke of York (later King James II), all of New York and New Jersey. The duke in turn granted New Jersey to two of his creditors, Lord John Berkeley and Sir George Carteret. The land was named Nova Caesaria for the Isle of Jersey, Carteret’s home. The year that England took control there was a large influx of English from New England and Long Island who, for want of more or better land, settled the East Jersey towns of Elizabethtown, Middletown, Piscataway, Shrewsbury, and Woodbridge.

  • Stable Isotopic Insights Into the Subsistence Patterns of Prehistoric Dogs (Canis Familiaris) and Their Human Counterparts in Northeastern North America
    STABLE ISOTOPIC INSIGHTS INTO THE SUBSISTENCE PATTERNS OF PREHISTORIC DOGS (CANIS FAMILIARIS) AND THEIR HUMAN COUNTERPARTS IN NORTHEASTERN NORTH AMERICA A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Sharon Allitt May 2011 Examining Committee Members: R. Michael Stewart, Advisory Chair, Temple University Anthony Ranere, Temple University Charles Weitz, Temple University Mark Schurr, Notre Dame University M. Anne Katzenberg, External Member, University of Calgary © Copyright 2011 by Sharon Allitt All Rights Reserved ! ii ABSTRACT Title: STABLE ISOTOPIC INSIGHTS INTO THE SUBSISTENCE PATTERNS OF PREHISTORIC DOGS (CANIS FAMILIARIS) AND THEIR HUMAN COUNTERPARTS IN NORTHEASTERN NORTH AMERICA Candidate's Name: Sharon Allitt Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2011 Doctoral Advisory Committee Chair: R. Michael Stewart, Phd There are four goals to this study. The first is to investigate the diet of prehistoric dogs (Canis familiaris) in the Northeast region of North America using stable isotope analysis. The second goal of this study is to generate independent data concerning the presence or absence of C4 resources, such as maize, in the diets of dogs. Third, this study investigates the use of dog bone as a proxy for human bone in studies assessing the presence of C4 resources at archaeological sites. The fourth goal of this study is to provide a check on existing interpretations of the material, macro- and micro- botanical records as it concerns the presence or absence of C4 resources at the sites involved in this study. Stable isotope analysis is a science that allows the measuring of the abundance ratio of two stable isotopes of a particular element.
