<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: ";Times New Roman";,";serif";;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Abstract: New Jersey was a state divided by slavery. After the Revolution, slavery continued its decline in West Jersey, home of the state’s most-fervent abolitionists. But slavery in East Jersey expanded in the years following independence. This paper examines divisions between east and west in the early Republic</span>.</span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">Abstract: Through an examination of materials from the Historical Society of Pennsylvania collections (the Richard Waln Papers and the Pennsylvania Abolition Society Papers) and the New Jersey State Archives, the paper highlights select sample writs of habeas corpus and manumission cases before the New Jersey Supreme Court from 1775-1783. The stories narrated in these documents tells a story of freedom – and lack of freedom – in New Jersey during and after the American Revolution.</span><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></p>

<span style="font-family: 'times new roman', times; font-size: small;">In keeping with all the colonies of British North America in the eighteenth century, New Jersey residents grappled with the poor in their midst. Since the early seventeenth century, people in Britain and in its colonies had accepted that even hard working people could slip into poverty through no fault of their own. This, in turn, meant that officials and townspeople recognized the need for some form of poor relief either through providing work options for the able poor or through direct relief for those unable to work. In eighteenth-century New Jersey, provincial poor laws and local town practices imitated, to some extent, common practices in Britain. However, these practices were modified by both the character of New Jersey settlement and by the broad requirements of provincial legislation which allowed for a significant degree of local interpretation. Thus, poor relief in New Jersey towns was carried out on a personal level and was influenced by both compassion and pragmatism. <span style="border-collapse: collapse;">Research for this article was funded in part by grants from the New Jersey Historical Commission and the University of Nebraska-Omaha's Committee on Research and Creative Activity.</span></span>

<p><em><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The talk shared here is an update of a short presentation made on March 21, 2014 in New York at the 24th Annual Monuments Conservancy Symposium on Public Monuments, “<em>Defining the Legacy of Patrick Charles Keely, Part II,” </em></span><span style="font-size: medium;">sponsored by art and architecture historian Donald Martin Reynolds. While the author’s research did not reveal an expected in-depth look into Keely, the College of St. Elizabeth did provide a broad perspective into Roman Catholic architecture of the latter nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. NJS is delighted to share this revised talk here in a nod to the location of the NJ Historical Commission's November 2016 New Jersey Forum. </span></span></em></p>

<p><em><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><span style="font-size: medium;">New Jersey’s role as a base for the Continental Army during the War of Independence has played an important part in the state’s understanding of its role in the American Revolution, and continues to shape the state’s image as the “Cockpit of the Revolution,” and “Crossroads of the American Revolution” today. This article uncovers how and why the Continental Army decided to place the bulk of its forces in northern New Jersey for two consecutive winters during the war.  </span><span style="font-size: medium;">Unlike the more renowned Valley Forge winter quarters, neither New Jersey encampment has received significant scholarly attention, and most works that have covered the topic have presumed the state’s terrain offered obvious strategic advantages for an army on the defensive.</span><span style="font-size: medium;">  </span><span style="font-size: medium;">This article offers a new interpretation, emphasizing the army’s logistical needs including forage for its animals and timber supplies for constructing winter shelters.</span><span style="font-size: medium;">  </span><span style="font-size: medium;">The availability of these resources, rather than easily defended rough terrain or close-proximity to friendly civilians, led Washington and his staff to make northern New Jersey its mountain home for much of the war.</span><span style="font-size: medium;">  </span><span style="font-size: medium;">By highlighting the role of the environment in shaping military strategy, this article adds to our understanding of New Jersey’s crucial role in the American struggle for independence.</span><span style="font-size: medium;">  </span></span></em></p>
