Excerpt from Descendants of Leonard Neighbour, Immigrant to America, 1738 All my life I have felt much interest in the history of our family, and from childhood have collected and preserved ai most every scrap of Neighbour history or biography I found. Finally it occurred to me to put into some orderly arrangement the information I had collected. But the attempt to do this soon showed me how much I lacked of having a complete record; and so for years I Opened correspondence with any relative or friend who I thought could help, me, and, in many cases. With strangers of the Neighbour name, of whom I chanced to learn. Mr. James H. Neighbour, of Dover, N. J gave me much valued and well arranged data regarding the early family his tory, and Chambers' Early Germans of New Jersey furnished most that I am able to give in regard to our people who now live in New Jersey.
