Product Information
Rockaway Township has been blessed with two significant natural resources: a rich deposit of magnetite iron ore and an abundance of water. Both played a major role in the history of the township. In the early 1700s, iron ore was discovered at Mount Hope and Hibernia. The area's mines provided iron ore from Colonial times to the 20th century, and products made from it contributed to the success of the Continental army during the Revolutionary War. Farms in Marcella, Lyonsville, Beach Glen, and Meriden provided agricultural products for the mining villages. In Rockaway Township, photographs tell the story of the township's rich mining history and its history as a vacation area. Vacation communities flourished into the 1950s and attracted an influx of people from various ethnic backgrounds, adding to the township's diversity. In the 1970s, the last segment of Route 80 was completed, beginning Rockaway's transformation into a flourishing suburban community.

Title: 'Images of America' turns focus on Rockaway Author: LISA KINTISH Publisher: Neighbor News Date: 6/2/2010 "Rockaway Township has been blessed with two significant natural resources: a rich deposit of magnetite iron ore and an abundance of water. Both played a major role in the history of the township." So states the back cover of the book, "Rockaway Township" from Arcadia Publishing. Covering the years 1770 to 1950, it spans supplying George Washington and the Continental Army with weapons to the flourishing vacation communities that still exist. Telling the township's rich history are two local historians, Eleanor C. Mason and Patricia A. White, who have been researching the material for more than 30 years. It was part of Mason's job at the Rockaway Township Library, where she retired after 43 years as a supervising librarian. A founding member of the Historical Society of Rockaway Township, Mason researched and documented historical background information for the Ford-Faesch House and the Split Rock Furnace in efforts to have the two accepted to the state and national registers of historic sites. She also co-authored the Rockaway Township Tour Guide as well as a booklet on the Bicentennial Quilt. In her role as curate for the society, she has done everything from interviewing, collecting, researching, and cataloging to filing the historical and photography collections for the township. White is currently the society's president and has been involved with the group since 1972 when she moved into Rockaway Township. A fourth-grade teacher at Stony Brook School since 1981, she worked to create curriculum that includes the history of Rockaway Township and provided training programs and historical site tours for teachers and students. She received the Rockaway Township Citizen of the Year Award for her involvement with the Young Historians of Rockaway Township and the Governor's Teacher Recognition Program and has appeared in several editions of "Who's Who Among American Teachers." The book, with its many historic photographs, is designed to provide the very information that residents have been inquiring about for years. White explained, "In the 1970s, very little had been written on the history of Rockaway Township. Ellie was working at the library and children would come in and ask for information on the township for school reports, and there was minimal information available. Ellie began doing her research. It was at this time that I joined the society and became involved as a volunteer in going into the schools to give presentations on Rockaway's history. Ellie and I began doing oral historians and collecting photographs. During the bicentennial I was asked to start a slide collection depicting Rockaway's history." Contending that she is not the society's photographer, but rather was the only person home raising her children for many years and therefore available, White estimates that she has taken over 2,000 slides of the township. Currently, the society is in the process of converting these slides to digital images. And after staring through the camera lens at Rockaway Township's many sites, White said her favorite is the Ford-Faesch House. "When I joined the society they were involved in getting this important Revolutionary home listed on the national and state registers of historic sites. John Jacob Faesch was the ironmaster at Mt. Hope during the Revolutionary War. The mines at Mount Hope helped supply the Continental Army with the weapons of war. His home is being restored by the historical society with the help of the township." The women agreed to write the book six years ago and spent five years working on photograph selections and writing captions and introductions. They also continued their research, which involved Mason contac

Item arrived in a timely manner. The book was upside down in the slipcase for some reason, but that doesn't affect product quality. Overall a great experience, and an excellent seller!
