  • Emerson: a Brief History
    Old picture post card of Emerson, looking east toward Emerson Hotel and Linwood School. Emerson: A Brief History Beginnings e take for granted what Emerson is today - a bustling community of over 7,000 W residents, with modern roadways, our own public school system and retail establishments that cater to our many needs. But we didn’t get that way overnight, and our community’s foundations were laid long before we were incorporated as a borough in 1903. Prior to the first non-native settlers, what is today Emerson was part of a tribal territory of Lenape Indians. Since there’s no written record of their activity, we cannot be sure how intensively they used the land – whether they made settlements here or just passed through. But we are reminded of their presence by Kinderkamack Road, which gets its name from a Lenape word for the local area. Though the true meaning of Kinderkamack has been debated for many years, most historians now agree that it should be translated as “upland”, a reference to the prominent ridge that extends from western Emerson south to River Edge. Of course there was no “Emerson” when the first non-native settlers came to this region. The area was known by two unofficial names, the aforementioned Kinderkamack on the west, which included parts of present-day Oradell and River Edge, and Old Hook on the east, the “hook” from a Dutch word meaning “angle” or “corner”. That angle of land was delineated by three connecting water courses – the Hackensack River, the Pascack Brook and the Musquapsink Brook.

Box 432, Midland Park New Jersey 07432 Bergen County's Townships and Municipsclties - Part I Compiled by Arnold Lang Today, 3ergen County is comprised of 70 municipalities - of these, there are 56 boroughs, 3 cities, 2 villages, and 9 townships. However, about 100 years age, most of these did not exist. Previous to 1885, Bergen County was divided into sprawling townships, such as: Hackensack, New Barbadoes, Franklin, Hanington, Saddle River, Lodi, Washington, Hohokus, Union, Midland, Ridgefield, Palisades, Englewood, Ridgewood, and ONil. This may present problems for those researching old vital records and deeds. This article is the fist iri a series that wiU describe the history of Bergen County frDm the original two tomsbips to the establishment of the existing 70 municipalities. A goal is to shwthe Boundaries of the older townships in relation to the boundary lines of the existing municipalities. This may be especially helpful in understanding the deeds abstracted by Pat Wardell which begin in this issue of Tdze Archivist. Bergen's Beginning - 1682 $0 1709 Townships of Bergerr mil \ Hackensaek Formed in 16 93 N The East Jersey Legislature created the states fmt counties in 2675 mainly to provide "judicial districts" for the courts. A court was set up in the town of Bergen and two courts were held each year. Names were not given tothe counties until seven years later when the counties of Bergen, Essex, Middlesex, and Monmouth were named by the Legislature. So Bergen County came intobeimg in 1682.

PUBLIC POLICY IMPACTS OF JURISDICTIONAL FRAGMENTATION By BRYAN PATRICK GRADY A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School‐New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Planning and Public Policy Written under the direction of Michael Lincoln Lahr And approved by ________________________________________ ________________________________________ ________________________________________ ________________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey January 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Public Policy Impacts of Jurisdictional Fragmentation By BRYAN PATRICK GRADY Dissertation Director: Michael Lincoln Lahr For decades, there has been substantial debate regarding whether it is preferable for a metropolitan area to be governed by a single local government, or by some number of smaller municipalities. Advocates of the latter, informed by Tiebout (1956) and public choice theory, argue that competitive markets in public goods can and should exist, while those in the former camp believe economies of scale and ability to plan cohesively at the regional level make unitary systems preferable. The literature on this topic, reviewed extensively here, has focused disproportionately on matters of public finance while venturing into other fields of public policy inquiry far less often. Does jurisdictional fragmentation have broader implications? This work will use regression analysis to test whether the structure of local governance affects a variety of outcomes, including ethnic and racial segregation, land use patterns, economic performance and inequality, educational achievement, and housing costs. Overall, results are mixed, though they suggest a future course of research: investigating whether fragmentation has worsened spatial mismatch in the labor market among African‐Americans.
