“Stranger Stop & Cast an Eye: An Introduction to New Jersey’s Historic Burial Grounds”

Ocean County Historical Society 26 Hadley Ave, Toms River, NJ, United States

Dr. Richard Veit Sunday, October 15, 2023, at 2:00 PM “Stranger Stop and Cast an Eye: An Introduction to New Jersey’s Historic Burial Grounds”  Far from being scary, spooky places, New Jersey’s historic burial grounds are treasure troves of information for historians, genealogists, archaeologists, and art historians. This richly illustrated presentation examines New Jersey historic cemeteries from High Point to Cape May. It provides a chronological overview of New Jersey’s historic burial places from the colonial period to the present. Exceptional examples of colonial, Victorian, and modern memorials are all presented and discussed. Audiences leave with a new appreciation for grave markers and burial places as important sources of information about local history. Richard Veit, Ph.D. is Professor of Anthropology and Associate Dean of the Wayne D. McMurray School of Humanities and Social Sciences at Monmouth University. A North American historical archaeologist, his research focuses on the colonial Middle Atlantic Region. He is the author of eight books and has been the recipient of Monmouth University’s distinguished teacher award. These events take place at our museum at 26 Hadley Avenue in Toms River. Our speaker series is free; however, SEATING IS LIMITED! To reserve your seat, send your name, zip [...]

Ancient Wisdom Shamanic Journey Group

Downtown Shops Activity Room 53 Main Street, Toms River, NJ, United States

COMMUNING WITH THE ANCESTORS The veil between the world grows thin at this time of year. It's a good time to honor our ancestors and seek their guidance. We will explore the Middle World, also called the Astral Plane. The Astral Plane is a reflection of the physical plane. This is where we meet those who have walked the earth before (and after) us as time doesn't exist in the way the physical world understands it. Time is rather a river without banks. Let's visit with our ancestors and discuss how miracles come to be. Pre-registation is required for planning purposes. https://bookme.name/mindbodyspirithome/ancient-wisdom
