Founders of New Jersey: First Settlements, Colonists and Biographies by Descendants [Soft Cover ]

Descendants of founders of New Jersey reside within the state, across the nation and around the world. Explore the lives and motivations of the men and women who colonized the state through colonial records, settlement histories, and biographies providing interesting insights into the early culture and development of the state. Family historians, genealogists, and historical researchers will value the documentation of 2000 17th and early 18th century colonists, events, settlements, grantors, grantees, deed holders, signers of patents, ship passengers and Native American sellers of land. Descendants of Founders of New Jersey is an organization dedicated to preserving New Jersey’s rich heritage. We hope this book inspires other descendants of New Jersey’s pioneers to join Descendants of Founders of New Jersey (www.njfounders.org) and to memorialize their New Jersey roots.
