Metal Detecting My Ancestor's Land
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 фев 2025
- In this video, I visit my ancestral community called The Alliance Colony in southern New Jersey, right outside of Vineland, New Jersey. During this trip I went metal detecting on my ancestor's land, I gave a talk at my ancestral shul in Alliance called, Tifereth Israel, I walked the Alliance cemetery multiple times, and I walked the Carmel Jewish Community's cemetery called Chesed Shel Emeth in Deerfield, New Jersey.

Loved your trip to the Cemeteries, Jarrett. I discovered the graves of my mother's maternal great-grandparents in 2021. The stones were eroded, and I thought it would be necessary to do some photography at different times of the day to try and read the script.
I'm glad you felt more connected to your heritage by attending the seders. There is a wealth in practicing what our ancestors fought to preserve.
Thank you for taking us along on your personal journey! 🙂
I loved this video! I'm not Jewish but I love to learn about the history. Your videos are always so much fun! Thank you for all your hard work!
Loved this video! It is very moving to be somewhere so important to one's ancestors. I discovered I had inadvertently moved to the town my paternal ancestors had lived for hundreds of years, and finding their gravestones in and around the church was amazing. Also a couple of houses they had lived in in the 17th and 18th centuries.
I feel ya. My great-great-grandfather died in 1916. In 2023 I met the great-great-grandson of his brother. We spent the day together and it was special that we reunited the Dial family after 107 years.
I enjoyed this very much!
Beautiful! I'm Jewish and I am proud!! Continue be proud to be Jewish 💪🏻
lol! Yes, the DC area metro traffic is brutal! Great video!
I found this touching for a whole bunch of reasons. But one is that I've been kind of on the fence about whether to get back into working on my family's genealogy projects, so it's been at the back of my mind. At the end of last week we had a 90th birthday part for my mom, and besides me and my siblings, some of our children and many of their children, one of my third cousins came. He used to visit my family in the 80s and has recently moved closer to us all and closer to his own children and grandchildren. My siblings (who saw more of him in the 80s when I was away at college) and I haven't really seen him since then and now all of a sudden we're all either grandparents or with adult children. It did make me wonder what the future would hold for my connections with my more immediate family and with more distant relations. Thank you for sharing some of the twists and turns in your own and your family's history. It's very moving.
If you haven't already I'd encourage you to sit down with the oldest members of your family and (with their permission) record them while you ask questions about the family. Sometimes when you ask open ended questions and just let elders talk you learn some real gems about your family history. Something my great aunt mentioned while telling me a story cleared up some confusion I had doing "paper" geneology, i.e. online and physical sources like the census and tax records. If I had thought to record it I could have saved the audio file as a reference.
Seriously fascinating
Sorry for the second comment - I just wondered if you had noticed that Rose died actually during Passover that year. I stopped the video and read the Hebrew date. 17th of Nisan... that's the 3rd full day of the holiday, after the two holy days that start it off...
I did not notice that!!! Having been to Alliance cemetery so many times and then the first time I find Rose's gravestone is just a day before the Hebrew anniversary of her passing. I visited her stone again on the 3rd day, so that makes me extremely happy to know I visited her on the Hebrew anniversary of her passing.
@@GeneaVlogger That is so cool!!
I just realized your name. My 5th great grandfather is George Ross 1705-1768
My Ross name was original Rosenberg, which was original Dratkowski and possibly Chojnicki before that. I basically come from a long line of surname changes.
I'm a randomly compulsive person. That said, I was sucked in by your Granny Fannie Baruch. So I searched her on Ancestry and looked at what you have already found. The 1900 Census said she immigrated in 1887 - but had only been in the country 3 years. Bad math? Likewise for little Mollie who was 7 and had supposedly immigrated 6 years before she was born. More bad math? Fannie has 2 living children, but had given birth to 6 by 1900. I think they may have immigrated in 1897 instead of 1887. Also noted that on the same page of Census there was a Joseph Barash ... could he be related phonetically to Fannie? Barash/Baruch? I don't know if this helps. I'm already losing focus and will sign off. best wishes.
Are the Lenape Native Americans aware this was your ancestor’s land? Odd wording given the dark history of New Jersey. It should be noted that the last of the Lenape were forced out from New Jersey in the 1860’s under the Indian Removal Act of 1830. Just two decades before communities like Alliance could be founded to accommodate Eastern European immigrants from denser neighboring cities like New York and Philadelphia.
I mean I imagine the Lenape Native Americans are aware of European systems of land ownership, yes. Immigrants settled in “frontier” areas across the US, because those were where the land was cheap and plentiful. Jewish farming communities have a really interesting history that’s worth studying, as is the history of indigenous land dispossession. One doesn’t invalidate the other.
@ American ancestral ties to the darker sides of history are worth acknowledging for historical clarity. Ben Affleck should have made this clear. You don’t have to “imagine” what the Lenape have to say, go ask the descendants who were forced into Oklahoma whether their resettlement is worth acknowledging.
Two percent native american & twenty two percent ashkenazi jewish. Of course, native americans were here for ten thousand years.This comment wasn't necessary.
