(Note: The following was prepared by Denise Ireland, a member of the Hudson County mailing List, while the newspapers are not identified, they are most likely the Hudson Dispatch or the Jersey Journal)
Margaret Woll Ford, my grandmother, who lived in Union City for most of her life, left us a scrapbook which contained 50 newspaper clippings, dating from 1929 to 1960. There are 274 mentions of people in these articles, all of which are indexed here, but because many of the people are named in several articles, there are actually only about 143 people represented. Sixty five of the 143 people were not related to the family.
Almost none of the articles have a date attached, however for most of them, I've been able to estimate a year.
The index being offered here cites only one article for each person, enough to be able to identify them to family members.
If you find a name for which you would like a copy of the articles, e-mail me at: Denise Ireland, and I will be happy to send it to you in bitmap form.
