Subject: Hunterdon Gazette Project Completed!
Date: Sat, 17 Dec 2005 17:36:27 -0500


I know that you have all been eagerly waiting for this announcement!

The Hunterdon Gazette computerization project has now been completed with the able assistance of Richard Williamson and Marshall Lake. CD #4 for the Years 1857-1866 is completed! [Loud applause and shouts of Hurrah!]

Each CD contains typed Text of the newspaper items, indexes of names and key words, and the digital photographs from which the text was typed. It is organized by year and both MSWord ''doc" and Adobe Acrobat "pdf" files are included. The photos are in the "jpg" format and require an appropriate picture reading program. The final index [1825-1866] contains over 29,000 entries!

The 4th CD contains a copy of the updated book "Hunterdon County Place Names" compiled by Phyllis B. D'Autrechy. Over 100 new items have been added and updates given to many more of the listings. These were found in the pages of the Hunterdon Gazette. The Hunterdon County Cultural and Heritage Commission has given permission for this reproduction which is included on the 4th CD only. The Hunterdon County Historical Society thanks them for this permission.

Since it may take some time to update the Web Site, I have included a copy of the Order form on this email.

My best to you all: Best wishes for a Happy Holiday Season, Merry Christmas to those who wish to celebrate this occasion[!], and happy hunting to all in the pages of the Hunterdon Gazette.

Regards, Bill Hartman
