Fled from the southern sun's fierce burning, Back from the chill of the north wind turning, With mayflowers decking her form so rare And magnolias redolent in her hair, Queen Flora rests on thy bosom fair, New Jersey! Lakes the feet of thy mountains are laving, Over thy plains the forests are waving, Across thy meadows and marshes and sands Orchards and farms are clasping their hands, Garden of States in fairest of lands! New Jersey! Smoke from thy cities' chimneys rising Looms to the sky, a Genius surprising, A Genius whose touch to new visions gives birth, Of homes rejoicing in music and mirth, And song floating everywhere over the earth, New Jersey! Quaker and Dutchman, long ago meeting, Hailed thy shores with immigrants' greeting, And still on the old home sites to-day Their children's children sturdily stay, Glad for thy progress and leading the way, New Jersey! Mother, dear Mother, thy sons are proclaiming Loyalty; with their banners aflaming The Jersey Blues still march at thy side, Eager to cheer thee with love and with pride, Ready to guard thee, whatever betide. New Jersey! JAMEs LANE PENNYPAcKER, Haddonfield, June 2, 1917. The New Jersey Society of Pennsylvania PHILADELPHIA The action of The New Jersey Society of Pennsyl ! vania in causing to be printed the “Notes on Old Glouces ter County, New Jersey,” compiled by Mr. Frank H. Stewart, the Historian of the Society, was the result of a motion made at a meeting of the Board of Directors of the Society, held on May 4th, 1917. At that meeting the following action was taken: On motion duly made by Mr. John W. Sparks, and seconded by Mr. George B. Hurff, the Chair appointed Messrs. Mulford and Stewart a committee of two to act in conjunction with the Ban quet Committee, and cause to be printed at the expense of the Society and distributed at the annual banquet of the Society, to be held on December 18th, 1917, copies of “Notes on Old Gloucester County,” written and edited by the Historian of the Society, Mr. Frank H. Stewart. WILLIAM J. CONLEN, Secretary. FOREWORD All over the State of New Jersey there are priceless historical and genealogical manuscript records gradually decaying and wearing away. Every year destruction by fire, age and carelessness takes place. Books and papers of a public nature are in private hands, sometimes rightly and oftentimes otherwise. Before it is too late legisla tion should be enacted providing at Trenton or elsewhere a fire-proof building suitable for preserving and making accessible the old unknown and unused records that are now stored in boxes or jammed in drawers in the various county buildings. In all of the New Jersey counties are marriage records. These by all means should be printed in the New Jersey Archives. Various Church records of great value for the vital statistics they contain are stowed away in attics and every time the clergyman changes loss is likely to occur. Township records, unrecorded deeds, ancient diaries, surveyors' maps, church documents and letters are invariably in private hands, and many of the owners would gladly give them to the State of New Jer sey if a proper custody were provided. The New Jersey Society of Pennsylvania believes it can do a noble work by publishing, from time to time, county by county, as its funds permit, the most important happenings of a historical character. With nothing but a deep desire to preserve worthy records, the compiler has possibly followed an unique course in the belief that the ordinary man is selfish enough to desire that the his tory of his family should be forever saved. Therefore, 6 Foreword. if this publication should seem to be over-burdened with names it is because of the wish to impress on as many people as possible that they have a personal family inter est in the records that will not exist a few years hence if immediate action is not taken either to copy them or safeguard the originals. The compilation of this book has taken altogether several months of time, and to many kind friends whose names appear as authors of different papers the Society here makes acknowledgment. The names of the con tributors are George E. Pierson, Wallace McGeorge, M. D., Louis B. Moffett, Rev. Edgar Campbell, George B. Macaltioner, Gideon Peaslee, Frank H. Taylor, James L. Pennypacker and Samuel N. Rhoads. To other good friends who have otherwise assisted by making easily accessible countless pages of manuscript records the compiler is indebted. FRANK H. STEwART.

Gloucester county was the first county in America established by its inhabitants. The first page of the first Court book con tains the following: GLOUCESTER YE 28TH MAY, 1686 By the Proprietors, Freeholders and inhabitants of the Third and Fourth Tenths (Alias County of Glouces ter) then agreed as followeth : Imprimis—That a Court be held for the Jurisdiction and limits of the aforesaid Tenths or County one Tyme at Axnamus alias Gloucester and an other tyme at Red Bank.

Date: 1982 Food Chart Copyright © 2003 by World Church of Creativity Salubrious Living - Introduction The term "Salubrious Living" is a nomenclature I have coined as part and parcel of a very important facet of our religious creed and program set forth by the CHURCH OF THE CREATOR. The word "salubrious" comes from the Latin word "salubris" meaning "healthy; wholesome; sound; useful; vigorous". Webster's dictionary defines the English derivative "salubrious" as: 1. favorable to, or promoting health or well being; invigorating; 2. spiritually wholesome; conducive to good results". It is in this context of fully promoting the health and well being of the White Race that we use this term in its true literal meaning. We of the CHURCH OF THE CREATOR want to differentiate this term from "Natural Hygiene popularly used for many decades by health practitioners devoted to this worthy art and science.

  • Popular Health Movements and Diet Reform in Nineteenth-Century America

    Popular Health Movements and Diet Reform in Nineteenth-Century America

    The Japanese Journal of American Studies, No. 21 (2010) Popular Health Movements and Diet Reform in Nineteenth-Century America Nanami SUZUKI* INTRODUCTION Food is deeply related to culture and society.1 While human beings have consumed a variety of things in their daily lives, they have attached a wide range of cultural meanings to what they select to eat, how they prepare their food, with whom they eat, as well as what they consume on special occasions. Several kinds of foods exist simply to be eaten at various ceremonial gatherings held at specific stages in the life cycle. Food is thus an impor- tant measure expressing the way that humans are linked to the environ- ment and to one another. Eating is an expression of one’s way of life, and statements of one’s faith and beliefs are often demonstrated through food-related codes and ceremonies. The United States grew with immigrants from diverse areas whose individual food cultures were an important element in their ethnic iden- tities. A new “creolized” food culture took shape through the fusion of those food cultures and foodstuffs in the new land in a concrete mani- festation of the meeting of cultures. The food culture of the United States experienced great changes from the 1820s to the 1890s. There was a significant expansion of the country physically and at the same time the promotion of internal migration. By Copyright © 2010 Nanami Suzuki. All rights reserved.
