As one of the original colonies, New Jersey is considered the ancestral home of millions of Americans living today. This present work, a joint project of the Genealogical Society of New Jersey and the Genealogical Publishing Company, acknowledges the pressing need for comprehensive, scholarly works on New Jersey families, and it therefore brings together all of the compiled material (genealogies, biographies, etc.) and Bible records published in the "Genealogical Magazine of New Jersey," the Society's celebrated periodical, from its first issue in 1925 through the end of Volume 65.
