Book Description
Galloway Township, founded in 1774 by the royal patent of King George III, is the largest municipality in New Jersey, encompassing the Absecon Highlands, Cologne, Conovertown, Germania, Higbeetown, Leeds Point, Oceanville, Pinehurst, Pomona, Smithville, and South Egg Harbor. Galloway has experienced everything from pirates to Prohibition. The Battle of Chestnut Neck occurred in Galloway in 1778 during the American Revolution. Along the way, the township has become home to Historic Smithville and Village Greene, the Seaview Resort, and the Noyes Museum of Art and has become the supposed birthplace of the fabled Jersey Devil.

Book Description
This book traces the Galloways back almost four centuries, starting with their Scottish homelands and their arrival in Virginia in the 1620's. They moved to Maryland in 1649 as part of a Quaker settlement, and from there spread out, following the frontier to Pennsylvania and Kentucky. The author's ancestry is traced back to Thomas, who died in Baltimore in 1798. The story is well documented throughout, with events put into historical context.

Book Description
Excerpt from The History of Galloway, From the Earliest Period to the Present Time, Vol. 2 The buildings in towns were still but mean, and the cottages rude and incommodious. The windows were yet but holes, sometimes closed with boards moving on clumsy hinges, sometimes stuļ¬'ed with straw. And sometimes filled with turf. The cot tages rarely contained more than one apartment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
