Eisel, Henry & Amanda691 viewsWedding picture of my great-grandparents Henry and Amanda Eisel, born Redmer. It was taken in a Photo Studio in Newark about 1899/1900. Maybe my great-grandfather Henry Eisel was in 1920 the owner of the Eisel Building 653 Broad Street in Newark. He emigrated in 1896 from Germany to New Jersey. I would like to know more about the wedding picture and the Eisel Building. Who has more information? Please contact me: Sonja Dembeck from Germany, e-mail: sonjdemb@gmail.com

Roth, Richard650 viewsMy father, Richard N. Roth (1922-2011) was raised in the Weeqhahic Section and lived in Newark until 1953, when he relocated to Hillside.

My mother’s father operated a trucking business in Newark which was established around 1930 on Morris Ave and later relocated to the corner of 12th St. and 13th Ave. My Dad assumed ownership in 1959 when my grandfather passed away. The firm remained in Newark until well after the riots. My grandfather was also a co-owner of the E & A Bus Company, which operated the #32 bus (South Orange Independent Line) that ran up South Orange Avenue.

My other Grandfather, Jacob Roth, also a Newark resident for much of his life, ran a butcher shop.

The above photo is of my father in front of the Billiard Academy at 25 Banta Place, Hackensack.

Petillo, Mary607 viewsMary Petillo, forelady of a Newark, New Jersey factory making lamp bulbs and tubes for the Signal Corps, is an active member of her plant's laboratory management committee. The committee, set up in cooperation with the War Production Board's drive to speed victory, was elected in Mary's plant from a personnel of 1700, 350 of them men. Vice-president of her local, United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America, Congress of Industrial Organization, Mary achieved the job of forelady by working working as a hand at many varied operations. She has made a suggestion to conserve bakelite lamp bases formerly discarded--a suggestion now in use at the plant--and is also the inventor of an apparatus which prevents short-circuiting during tests of lamps
