I purchased the CD as soon as I got the first message about its availability. It is very well done. It has the newspaper text and a copy of the actual paper if you care to view it.
In addition to information about your own ancestors and relations, it is also interesting to go through some of the stories and advertisements. I think it gives a better understanding of the time period. Some people may feel otherwise, but I feel that it was well worth the investment and I am looking forward to the next installment (sorry to put the pressure on so soon after the first release).
By the way, I don't know how available this newspaper is on microfiche, but I am pretty sure that they do not even have it at the NJ archives for review. So here is an additional reason to support this project.

The next time you go to Hunterdon's Library, could you look up the following names in the Gazette?
I really appreciate you doing this.

JOHN D. HART, 1831, 1833
JOSEPH HART, 1826, 1835

Mel, I don't have to go to the Hunterdon's Library [Hunterdon County Historical Society Library as distinguished from the Hunterdon County Library - 2 different locations and not related to each other] since I am the person who is indexing and typing the articles from the Hunterdon Gazette. Apparently you found the names in the Index on the Web Site and therefore they are as stated in the Gazette and therefore no one needs to look them up again!

Since I have been inundated with requests, I will no longer send out the information referenced, but have produced the CD with all of the information from the Gazette for my fellow researchers. The order form is on the Web Site and I encourage you to purchase this only because of the wealth of historical material that it contains.

Regards, Bill
