This is the Dingenis GLERUM family, at Ellis Island when the immigrated in 1907 from the Netherlands.

They are identified in the 1910 census in Lodi, Bergen County as: Daniel (Dingenis) - 48, Nellie - 42, Marinus - 22, Daniel, Jr. - 19, Jacob - 18, Maria - 16, Frank - 14, Jacoba (dau) - 13, Minnie - 12, Paulina - 11, Johanna - 10, two sons - 8 & 7 (names unreadable), and a daughter (unreadable) - 4.

Apparently the youngest daughter was not caught on film. Photographer was Augustus SHERMAN, an immigration employee who also photographed immigrants from 1905-1920, and whose photographs are now a part of the Ellis Island museum's collection.

I believe my great grandfather, Berthold Nensel, took group pictures for the Tenafly High School year books. I have scanned some of the original prints from about 1930. I can estimate the year of this one because my grandfather, Emil Nensel, (class of 1931) is in this picture (second row, far left). I do not know any of the other people in the pictures however.

This is a business card from My great grandfathers Furniture business. The card itself tells much of what you might want to know. The year is 1920's and 1930's however the business may have existed well before that. As the card says 40 years experience. We believe the business was brought over from England and that too may explain the 40 years. They immigrated in 1887 Joseph S. Freestone was married to Sarah Farrington they lived on Maple Ave as well as having his business on Maple. My Aunt still talks about the horse hair bed mattresses! There children are: Susan, Fredrick, Florence (Agnes), Hazel, Ernest, Matthew born between 1881 and 1899

Borden Dairy Distribution plant at 163 State Street in Hackensack. The date is about 1910 since one of the men is Alfred Clinton SEITZ [1881-1938] who was listed as a milk wagon driver in the 1910 US Census. We do not know which one he is. This would be the only photo of him that the family would have. If you can help identify the people in this photo, we can start post them for others who may visit and help to find Mr. SEITZ for the family.

This is a photo of my Grand-mother Eleanor Genevieve Hutchinson, taken in the mid 1920's at Palisades Amusement Park, Cliffside Park, NJ. She was a resident of Palisades Park and Bogota, NJ.

The photo is believed to be one of my Travers, McCabe, Mullaly, or Bottomley ancestors who immigrated to America from Ireland. The Travers, McCabe and Mullalys came circa 1840's.
The Bottomleys came over in the 1870's.

The original photo is approximately 2 1/4 by 3 1/2 inches. On the back of the photo is the following:
H. Kraus, Photographer - Carlstadt. A part of Carlstadt is not readable, but I believe from my research that this is Carlstadt, New Jersey, as there seems to be no other Carlstadt in the United States. I am hoping that someone will be able to help me date the photograph if the period of time that H. Kraus was in business at Carlstadt can be ascertained

James Courter and Hannah (Forshee) Courter Family (1775-1880)

My Aunt, Lucy (Courter) DeBaun, stated about 1960 that this was a picture of the Courter family. I am assuming then that picture was taken 1875-1880. All individuals born Bergen County, NJ. The picture was given to me by Barbara (Hugg) Burghardt and came from the house of Harold and Emma (Cable) Courter after they died in Fairfield, Essex, NJ.

If anyone can identify other individuals in picture, please contact me.
