Hello, my name is Nancy Keyes and I am your New
Jersey State host.
If you have data that you would like to have posted on this website, please email me.
Please include the County (and State) you are submitting data for.
THIS COUNTY IS AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION
Our goal is to help you track your ancestors through time by transcribing genealogical and historical
data and placing it online for the free use of all researchers.
If you have a love for history, a desire to help others, and basic web-authoring skills, consider joining us! Get
the details on our Volunteer Page.
[A desire to transcribe data and knowledge of how to make a basic webpage is required.]
This County currently does not have a host. This means that there is no one available to help answer
your questions about this county's history or to help you with your family's genealogy within this county. WE
REGRET THAT WE ARE UNABLE TO DO PERSONAL RESEARCH FOR YOU.

Hudson County lies several hundred feet from the western shore
of Ellis and Liberty Islands, and has always been a gateway for many immigrants to the United States. Both Ellis
Island and Liberty Island lie entirely within Hudson County's waters, which extend to the New York state line at
the middle of the Hudson River. Liberty Island is wholly part of New York. Ellis Island is jointly administered
by the states of New Jersey and New York. Nine-tenths of its land is technically part of Hudson County, with the
remainder being part of New York.
Hudson County is also recognized as one of the Northeast's major transportation and industrial hubs
