This data set includes approximately 60,000 individuals and covers the entire state of New Jersey in the 1800s. The biographies indexed are valuable because of the strong connection between biography and family history. They are taken from a great variety of sources including biographical encyclopedias, histories, annual reports and other serials, and selected periodicals. Almost all are New Jersey publications, and several provide not only biographies but also genealogical sketches. All of the biographies are based on information provided by the subjects or their immediate families and often, there is more than one sketch of the same individual.
