Reconstructing Snow Hill
Early genealogy of what is now called Lawnside, New Jersey
Snow Hill Genealogy will focus on the time period pre-dating the incorporation of Lawnside, New Jersey in 1926. During the 19th century this community was known as Snow Hill.
Like many other African American communities, Snow Hill has a unique and interesting history. Using genealogical records, we will gradually uncover this history through the lives of those living in the Village of Snow Hill.
We present this information in honor of the work of Linda Waller Shockley, President of the Lawnside Historical Society. Our goal is to share our passion in family history research and provide a genealogical component to the great works of the Society.
Our first project is to map, transcribe and photograph the headstones of Civil War burials in Lawnside NJ. Visit the main page of the project. Civil War Burials in Lawnside.
