Remembering the 20TH Century: An Oral History of Monmouth County


The Monmouth County Library System is celebrating the new millennium by exploring the past through the Oral Histories of 100 Monmouth County citizens.

Please journey with us into the past as we learn about our county, state, and country from days gone by. We wish to thank each person who contributed so much to this project and donated their time, memories, and personal feelings to this project. We literally could not have done it without them.

Oral History records the living memories and feelings of all kinds of people, many otherwise hidden from history, and creates a more vivid picture of our past.

Oral history enables people who have been hidden from history to be heard, and for those interested in their past to record their personal experiences and those of their families and communities.

Oral history preserves everyone’s past for the future.
