Random History Bytes is a collection begun of posts first made to a Tuckerton, NJ Facebook site. This site is intended to preserve them in one place, and to make them more permanent and easily accessible.
They start off with Little Egg Harbor Township, Tuckerton, Ocean and Monmouth County history releated posts, but will expand to New Jersey history in general, and possibly further. I have a definite plan, but it may mutate, so we will just have to see how this evolves.
The intent is to pick historic topics that folks may find interesting. Currently I am looking to old texts from respected historians (out of copyright) and adding to their legacy by letting them tell the stories of our early history. What we know about history is largely due to these folks dedicated to doing exhaustive research and writing it down. I may weigh in with background oversights.
