Download or read book Chatham Township, Nj: Secrets from the Past written by Bert Abbazia and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2011-07-08 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of this unique endeavor is written by an eye witness to the “rise and demise” of America’s Fourteenth Colony. The story is the result of the author retrieving original documents to verify the people and events of an odyssey that spanned five decades. The story is collaborated by the survivors and the beneficiaries of an experiment, for a better way of life, by a group of predominately Eastern European and Russian Jews with their political “shades of red” philosophy settling into what was a predominately “conservative” Chatham Township, a rural community in Central New Jersey. It is a story of objection, rejection, suspicion, ridicule and ultimately, assimilation and acceptance. The story has been influenced and colored by the author’s personal observations and personal experiences while growing up in the Colony. Bert Abbazia was a “Colony Boy”.

Book excerpt: Chatham, New Jersey is a small town situated on the banks of the Passaic River. The first visitors were the Lenni Lenape Indians who stopped in Chatham on their annual migration from Sussex County to the Atlantic Ocean. They called the river the "Fishawack". In late August of 1781, while his troops were camped in Morristown, George Washington wrote seventeen letters from a Chatham homestead. After the Revolutionary War, Chatham's convenient location, just a day's journey from New York City, made it a popular overnight stop for east-west travelers. The mid nineteenth century brought vacationers from Newark and New York City to enjoy Chatham's "salubrious air." Drawn to the bucolic setting, many vacationers returned to make Chatham their home. Today Chatham is a bustling commuter suburb. Its tenuous ties to a simpler time exist mainly in the memories of its citizens. A native Chathamite, Liz Holler chronicles those times. From Swimming with the Roses to The Tea Room Era, Liz's stories depict life in a small town by the river. These vignettes, first published in the Chatham Historical Society newsletters, depict a moment in time that adds to Chatham's rich past.

Book excerpt: Chatham and the Passaic River have been inextricably linked for nearly 275 years, since the towns founding under the informal name of Days Bridge. That name honored John Day, builder of the first span across the river, which forms the eastern edge of the town. The nature of generations of the towns residents is reflected in the areas permanent name, selected by villagers in 1773. Chatham is named for Great Britains William Pitt, the Earl of Chatham, who was a champion of American liberties during that revolutionary era. The Passaic, fondly referred to by locals as The Fishawack, inspired the gradual flourishing of early mills and factories. Small shops, hotels, and a railroad have brought nineteenth-century prosperity to Main Street, the hub of Chatham, and extended the influence of residents who commute to Newark and New York City. John T. Cunningham, New Jerseys preeminent historian, chronicles this growth and the relationship between populace and river through wonderful photographs and intriguing historic details.

Download or read book Chatham Township written by John T. Cunningham and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The once-expansive Chatham Township was reduced to only a fraction of its size after Florham Park, Chatham Borough, and Madison Borough split from the township between 1889 and 1899. Its present, smaller size, however, does not reflect its vast history. Few municipalities possess such dramatic events, colorful figures, or community spirit. For instance, when the Newark Evening News reported that the powerful Port of New York Authority would take over 10,000 acres of the Great Swamp and spend $220 million to create an international jetport, people of the township and outraged citizens in a wide area surrounding the Great Swamp began to fight back. Although the Port Authority promised jobs, prosperity, and progress, their efforts were in vain. Instead of a jetport, the land now consists of 7,500 protected acres, one of the largest National Wildlife Refuges ever created so close to an urban center. Stories like this from the twentieth century are quite large in scope. Stories of prosperous farms, huge rose-growing greenhouses, and times enjoyed in simple, bucolic settings make up the township's history in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Chatham Township is an embodiment of these historical stories and images. There was a time when the marshes of the Great Swamp were hunting grounds for huckleberries, when a Noe family horse pulled milk carts through the streets, and even, it was whispered, when the massive, three-story, Greek Revival Boisaubin mansion was used as a stop along the Underground Railroad. One of the most notable stories is of a lady known as Madame Bey, who opened a camp for prizefighters, making Chatham Township a sports page dateline known throughout the country.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Brief History of Chatham: Morris County, New Jersey The first thought of compiling this history of Chatham was prompted by the assembling of certain facts concerning the town for use in composing a community drama entitled "Amanda Minton's Dream." After the writing of this play by Mr. H. T. Strong and myself, and the successful rendition of it by "The Chatham Players," I set about to amplify the brief data assembled and to put that which I found in readable form. Urgent requests were made by many of the citizens of the town that the material collected be published. When the History of Morris County was undertaken in 1913 by the Lewis Historical Publishing Co., Mr. Chas. M. Lum was chosen as one of the editorial staff, and it was in response to Mr. Lum's request that this brief sketch was written for that publication. After the manuscript was finally accepted many of the citizens of the town expressed the desire to have the material bound in a separate pamphlet. This was found feasible at a small expense on the publishing side, and in consequence this history of the town is submitted. Grateful acknowledgment is herewith made to all who contributed in any way whatsoever to this work. Especially do I wish to make mention of the materials presented by H. T. Strong, James R. Littlejohn, Wm. H. Lum, Geo. Spencer, Guy Minton, Washington Bond, Nelson Kelley, Sr., and Miss Phoebe Potter. The work done by Mr. James R. Littlejohn in compiling data and making the maps in this pamphlet is of inestimable worth. While individuals might observe omissions and question certain statements, the greatest precaution has been exercised, and wherever it has been thought advisable the source of information has been interpolated in the text.

Book excerpt: Did you know that an octopus has 3 hearts; or, that an elephant has 40,000 muscles in its trunk; or, that a herd of black rhinoceros is called a "crash"? Those little known facts, plus others, are in the Animal Alphabet book. You'll find them inserted in a bit of poetry and an assortment of 26 animals and a few other things in this carefully researched, sometimes word-bending children's/parents' book. It is a significant cross-over departure from the usual ABC approach. The concept of the book is simple, give them something so they react, I didn't know that," or with a smile and laugh-out-loud...or both.
