June Guest Speaker: "Early Cedarbrook History and the Duble Family" with Ron Pagano.
In 1800 most of Winslow Township was a “wilderness” consisting of cedar swamps and
hardwood “uplands”. Into this wild country a young woodcutter from Burlington, Joshua
Haines Duble, built a two room shack near a stream on the Long-A-Coming Indian trail about
twenty miles from Camden in the settlement now known as Cedarbrook. Joshua married Sarah
Phipher and on August 2, 1829 she gave birth to a son, John Roger Duble, who later purchased
from the Coopers a huge area on land running from Williamstown Junction to Winslow, and
containing almost all of what is today Winslow Township.
Ron Pagano, the
fourth Great Grandson of Joshua Duble will talk about his family and their contribution to
South Jersey history. Please join us for Ron’s presentation. All are invited to attend. The presentation will begin at 8:00 PM, following the 7:00 PM business meeting.
