Old and Forgotten Cemeteries of New Jersey

There are ten more amazing graveyards to see in this volume with several of them having soldiers from the Revolutionary and Civil wars. Two of them are very small family burial grounds like The Long-Gordon burial ground, located on a small country road in the Lake Hopatcong area. The second is the Davenport family burial ground which is located in the back yard of a private home in Oak Ridge. There is also the Milton Baptist Church, a small church which has two remaining headstones from the mid 1800's found at the back of the building. The other cemeteries in this issue are located from Oak Ridge to Mount Olive. Most of them are dependent on volunteers to care for the grounds. Without them, the cemeteries would become heavily overgrown leading to damaged headstones and eventually disappearing all together like so many others have.
