Preserving, protecting, promoting and publishing our local histories
Historic Inhabitants
Every successful town starts with a few intrepid individuals who decide to strikeout on their own to make a life for themselves and their families. Early life was not easy, but these families, now well known names around town, decided to make Tabernacle their home.
All of these pictures have come from our collections or internet sites such as Ancestry.com and Find-a-Grave. Many are from the collection of Millie Moore, a long time local family genealogy researcher, If you have additional pictures you would like to post, please contact us via the emails on the “Contacts” page.Or if we’ve posted one of your pix and you would allow us to give you credit for that, just let us know.

And from the privately published book, The Horner Bozarth Family, we have the following caption:
“She is holding her old yellow tomcat. His name was “Snubby” or “Goldy.” The last thing she did before she died was feed him and pick some squash out of the garden. Alex Foulks, who used to board with grandmom, and Aunt Emmy, used to buy beef steak to feed “Snubby.” Grandmom also had an old dog named “Maudie,” who lived to be 21 years.”
“Melvin’s old Ford car is behind her, near the maple or Apple tree between the houses. Grandmom is sitting behind a big mound of mountain pinks.”

Many people have heard of the Haines family of Tabernacle and of Burlington County. Richard Haines left Northampton England and arrived in America sometime in 1682 on the ship Amity. And it is with his descendant Grace Templeton Haines (1902-1954), who married George Henry Tindall (1899-1985), that the Tindall family connects with the Haines family.
