So I grew up in Branchburg. I grew up on a farm with a cemetery on it from that time period. It’s now a golf course. I’m like the Goonies if they never found the rich stuff of One Eyed Willie

Did you know older Black Cemeteries are quite often left to decline but usually not White Cemeteries. I read a book on this as well as attended a seminar on this subject.

There is a smaller hidden cemetery in Bridgewater across from the Vocational school. It’s the Castor Compton Cemetery

So I grew up on the Old York Rd, in what our address was Neshanic Station, but we lived in Hunterdon County, but our address was Somerset County, my dive way was the original driveway, that went down across our property, down into a small valley, there were 3 originals fresh water wells, 2 near the foundation property, I used to go digging around, there was one well that my father put a piece of plywood across to prevent accidentally falling in in.

Why would anyone take something from a cemetery treasure or not? Just bring the spirits home with you why not

I wonder if this is any way related to Vossller Ave in Bound Brook? And if the family had that land too?
