Hi Deborah,

First a pitch for the Hunterdon County Genealogy Web Site and in particular, the Hunterdon Gazette, the first newspaper published in said county. Please go to and surf until you find the Index. There are a bunch of Naylor's [Try also: Nailor] listed! Go to: http://www.rootsweb.com/~njhunter/

I will look up the obituaries you noted below, take digital photos of them and send to you if I find them in the Hunterdon Democrat. Please remember that the usual procedure in the old newspapers was to just list the persons name with little other information. If the family paid the money, an obituary was written according to how much they paid.

So you may only have the information that Dennis Sutton has listed which you can also find on the above web site under the "Extracts from the Hunterdon Democrat". To get all the listings, just type your Surname, check 'Anytime' Click 'Search' and all the listings for that Surname will be displayed. Try "NAYLOR" first since it has the most listings, and then "NAILOR" which has fewer hits!

I go to the Hunterdon County Historical Society Library on Thursdays and that is when I will check the Democrat. No fee, I do this for the Fun of it!

Regards, Bill
