Federal Census for Brookville, 1930

Brookville Residents, 1930 This is, or was, a small community in Ocean Township, Ocean County, New Jersey, near Waretown I don't know much about the place or its history, but below I have transcribed the 1930 Census along with notes on the families who lived there at that time. In 1930, there were only fifteen occupied residences in Brookville. About 44 people made up the entire village. (Compare this with 1920: there were 14 homes, and 45 people). According to the 1930 census, only two of the families (Joseph Spiska and Charles Gynakovic) did not own a radio set at the time. Federal Census For Brookville, 1930 "Main Road" - the streets apparently were not named in Brookville in 1930. BACHMAN FAMILY I can't make out the first name of the head of house for this home, but the last name definitely looks like "Bachman". It's hard to be sure though, as the writing is very sloppy on this entry. At any rate, this house had five residents in

William Walter Stults obituary, 1918

from the New Jersey Courier 25 Oct 1918 William Walter Stults died in New York City, and his body was brought to Forked River, his former home, on Sunday morning. Funeral services were held and burial made at Good Luck burying ground. He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Stults, and grew up here, but had been working in the city. He leaves the following brothers and sisters: Mrs. Stokes Collins of Barnegat; Mrs. Jennie Evans of Forked River; Mrs. Hattie Bennett of Briarcliff, NY; Charles Stults, Jr, of Scranton, PA. He also leaves a widow, two sons and a father. He was jolly and full of fun, and frequently visited Forked River, says our correspondent from that place.

News From Forked River, 1918

New Jersey Courier 18 Jan 1918 Sugar and condensed milk are high in price and hard to get; so is corn meal. High prices is one way our small villages feel the effects of the war. Another way is that so many of our men have gone away to work, and now the young women are leaving to take jobs in the industiral centers. Miss Bertha Eno is out of town. Eugene Bunnell has gone home to New York, having been here to the funeral of Mrs. Tillie Bunnell. Joseph Collins, while in New York one of these slippery mornings, had a bad fall on Broadway. Amos Lewis and son are working on the hydroplane job at League Island navy yard, Philadelphia. Lloyd Reeves is now coastguard at Forked River station. Edward Cranmer of Double Trouble drove here to Hollywood farm Tuesday for a load of hay. The oxteam is quite a curiosity these days. Saturday morning's gale did considerable damage. Daniel Wilbert had a building blown down. Almost a flood Tuesday, with heavy rain on ice covered ground. The inf
