Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief History of New Jersey It is the aim of the following pages to make known the most important events in the history of New Jersey, from the first settlement to the present time. With so great an array of authorities at command, the task has been largely that of grouping and condensing the work of others. The question that faced us at the beginning was whether to write merely a brief story that would give a general knowledge of the history of the State, or to add names, dates, and other particulars. In the latter case the work not only would furnish interesting reading, but also would serve for instruction. After consulting with many in whose judgment we have faith, we adopted a middle course. The body of the work aims to inform as well as to entertain; but such statistics as are given appear in the Appendix. If there can be no excellence without labor, then children and adults cannot learn history simply by being entertained with a story which omits the names and dates that are necessary for a comprehension of real history. We consider ourselves fortunate in the help that we have received in our labor. Henry C. Buchanan, State Librarian, John Cotton Dana, of the Newark Free Library, and E. W. Miller, of the Jersey City Free Library, not only placed all the resources of their libraries at our disposal, but also aided us with wise suggestions.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of New Jersey, Vol. 1 of 2: From Its Earliest Settlement to the Present Time, Including a Brief Historical Account of the First Discoveries and Settlement of the Country History has universally conceded that Christopher Columbus was the first successful navigator to the Western Continent, and in furtherance of his discoveries the first colonies were founded, yet it does not concede to him the honor of being the first discoverer, as we have information that I think can be relied on, that Eric of Iceland, made discoveries on this continent as early as the year 986, being five hundred and six years before Columbus landed here; and tradition informs us that the Chinese penetrated within the bounds of the continent in the year 498, nearly one thousand years before the discovery by Columbus. Although we have no authentic information to sustain the latter, yet we are not prepared fully to reject it, as the Asiatics were, previous to the introduction of the religion of Confucius among the Chinese, a nomadic people, and wandered from place to place, but since the introduction of his religious tenets, they ceased their wanderings, and remained at home, in order that their bones might be entombed with those of their ancestors; and even to this day, those who come to this and other countries, do so with the stipulation, that their bones are to be sent back to their own country. In support of the discovery by Icelanders, we have the evidence of the researches of the society of Antiquarians of Copenhagen, established in 1837.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of New Jersey, Vol. 2 of 2: From Its Earliest Settlement to the Present Time; Including a Brief Historical Account of the First Discoveries and Settlement of the Country The following account of the battle of Trenton is copied from the Pennsylvania Journal of 1781: "About eight o'clock in the morning, an attack was made on the picket-guard of the enemy. It was commenced by a youth of eighteen, who fell in his retreat to the main body. "At about half-past eight o'clock the town was nearly surrounded, and all the avenues to it were seized, except the one left for General Ewing to occupy. An accident here liked to have deprived the American army of the object of the enterprise. The commanding officer of one of the divisions sent word to General Washington just before they reached the town, that his anmunition had been wet by a shower of rain that had fallen that morning, and desired to know what he must do. Washington sent him word, 'to advance with fixed bayonets. This laconic answer inspired the division with the firmness and courage of their leader. "The whole body moved onward in sight of the enemy. An awful silence reigned in every platoon. Each soldier stepped as if he carried the liberty of his country upon his single musket.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Government of New Jersey The Dutch settlers were very slow to take up a residence in New Jersey. By 1664 they had small settlements at Paulus Hook and Bergen (both within the present limits of Jersey City), and also at Hoboken, Pavonia, and Weehawken. A few settlers had built themselves homes on Newark Bay, but the actual settlement had progressed so slowly that when the Dutch were forced to give up New Netherlands, few traces of their occupation remained.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geography and History of New Jersey The geography and history of any state are closely interwoven; New Jersey is no exception. Its coast position between two great cities, the long sandy stretches in the east, and the foothills toward the west and north have all combined to make of the history of this state not only an interesting story which every New Jersey school child should know but also one in which he should take great pride. It is the geographic conditions with which a people have to contend that determine to a great extent what that people shall accomplish. The authors of the present book have endeavored to show clearly and definitely the character of the land which we call New Jersey: how it has fostered farming, fishing, and manufacturing; how it has steadily made for progress; and how it has brought wealth to the inhabitants. New Jersey has been greatly favored and her people have accomplished much. The history of New Jersey began almost with the history of our country, and from the time when the first settlers reached her coast and laid out their small farms and towns there have been no movements in our national history in which the men and women of New Jersey have not done their part. It is presupposed that the children who study this book will be acquiring from other texts a general knowledge of United States history, and so only those events and incidents which are peculiarly a part of the history of the state of New Jersey have been included in this narrative. A brief outline of the civics of New Jersey is included which will furnish a framework of government in this state. From such a beginning the child may develop a wider and more thorough knowledge of local governmental problems.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories From American History: New Jersey, From the Discovery of Scheyichbi to Recent Times This volume of stories, composed of historical incidents, or material connected with the history of New Jersey, is not intended to be a record, even in a condensed form, of the rise and progress of the State. The stories are arranged chronologically, but there has been no attempt to give a complete and continuous account of events or epochs. The material for the stories has been collected from many sources; and the selections have been made with regard to the interest, the instructiveness, and as far as possible the novelty, of the matter chosen. There has been a constant endeavor, however, to present a series of historical incidents in a panoramic form, so that the reading of the stories in their regular succession would give an impressive idea of the discovery and settlement of the State, of its people, manners, and customs, and of its progress and achievements, as it was gradually evolved from the Indian region of Scheyichbi into the State of New Jersey.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Documents Relating to the Colonial History of the State of New Jersey, Vol. 25 In the opening pages of the present volume are chronicled the final struggles for the repeal of the Stamp Act, which was carried through the House of Commons in March, 1766, by a majority of one hundred and eight. The "Sons of Liberty" mean time kept up their agitation, holding meetings in the principal centers of population, whereat they adopted resolutions avowing their unalterable loyalty to the king, but their independence of parliament; denouncing the Stamp Act, and demanding and compelling the resignation of the stamp distributors. Men suspected of a willingness to render obedience to the law were not only ostracised, but openly threatened as public enemies. A creditor who tried to enforce the collection of a debt by due process of law quickly had the tables turned on him by his debtor denouncing him as one who favored the obnoxious act. inasmuch as the execution must needs have the tabooed stamps affixed. At Elizabethtown hanging was voted to anyone taking out stamps. The lawyers and magistrates of the Province quite generally ignored the law, and transacted legal business without stamps. The thoughtful reader will herein discern in many ways signs of the irresistible onward movement destined to culminate within ten years in the assertion of total independence of the mother country. The resolutions to use no British importations were so generally observed throughout the Colonies that soon the ministry found themselves vigorously attacked in the rear, by the London merchants engaged in American trade, who publicly protested against any legislation by parliament that would anger the Americans and cause them to withdraw their trade from England; and with no uncertain sound these merchants demanded the repeal of the Stamp Act, in order to save their commerce. Governor Franklin's acquiescence in the measure, lukewarm though it was, angered the people of the Province, and was perhaps the origin of the assertion that his father - Benjamin Franklin - was the author, or at least the suggester, of the hated legislation, this story being given out in explanation of the Governor's attitude. William Franklin's manly denial of the report in 1766 ought to have satisfied every fair-minded man that there was no foundation for the slander. But nevertheless it survived for scores of years.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early Germans of New Jersey: Their History, Churches, and Genealogies This work is the result of an attempt to discover the exact time of the first settlement of New Jersey by people of the German race. It is believed that this fact has been ascertained with sufficient certainty. Between 1710 and 1713 nearly all palatines, who have left any trace of their presence, began to arrive in the State and to fulfill their important part in the upbuilding of this commonwealth. In the course of this investigation extending, as it needs must do, in so many directions and having to do with so many records, a large amount of valuable material would naturally accumulate. This has appeared to the author to be worth pre serving, even though the labor and expense and risk of so large a book would be required for that purpose.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New Jersey: A History of the Garden State presents a fresh, comprehensive overview of New Jersey’s history from the prehistoric era to the present. The findings of archaeologists, political, social, and economic historians provide a new look at how the Garden State has evolved. The state has a rich Native American heritage and complex colonial history. It played a pivotal role in the American Revolution, early industrialization, and technological developments in transportation, including turnpikes, canals, and railroads. The nineteenth century saw major debates over slavery. While no Civil War battles were fought in New Jersey, most residents supported it while questioning the policies of the federal government. Next, the contributors turn to industry, urbanization, and the growth of shore communities. A destination for immigrants, New Jersey continued to be one of the most diverse states in the nation. Many of these changes created a host of social problems that reformers tried to minimize during the Progressive Era. Settlement houses were established, educational institutions grew, and utopian communities were founded. Most notably, women gained the right to vote in 1920. In the decades leading up to World War II, New Jersey benefited from back-to-work projects, but the rise of the local Ku Klux Klan and the German American Bund were sad episodes during this period. The story then moves to the rise of suburbs, the concomitant decline of the state’s cities, growing population density, and changing patterns of wealth. Deep-seated racial inequities led to urban unrest as well as political change, including such landmark legislation as the Mount Laurel decision. Today, immigration continues to shape the state, as does the tension between the needs of the suburbs, cities, and modest amounts of remaining farmland. Well-known personalities, such as Jonathan Edwards, George Washington, Woodrow Wilson, Dorothea Dix, Thomas Edison, Frank Hague, and Albert Einstein appear in the narrative. Contributors also mine new and existing sources to incorporate fully scholarship on women, minorities, and immigrants. All chapters are set in the context of the history of the United States as a whole, illustrating how New Jersey is often a bellwether for the nation..

These, whether fragments or consecutive records, are not appreciated in the time of their happening, but later are invaluable. Since Morgan Edwards wrote his materials there has not been a historical record of Baptist affairs. Since the Acts of the Apostles, the history of Christianity has been an account of divers' teachings and of sects without number, indicating that Chris tianity later as at the first looses the shackles off of mind and con sciences; sets men to thinking, constituting them independent.
