Title
New Jersey Churchscape
Description
We've created a database and photographic inventory on more than half the 18th & 19th century churches in the state and add to it each month. We welcome and solicit all contributions and suggestions from our visitors.
NewJersey Churchscape was developed and is maintained by Frank L. Greenagel, author of The New Jersey Churchscape: Encountering the 18th and 19th Century Churches, published by Rutgers University Press.
His work on the old churches of Hunterdon County was honored by the Hunterdon County Planning Board's annual Donald Jones Award in 2000. Dr. Greenagel has been photographing the churches of New Jersey for the last eight years, and speaks often on the topic to historic and preservation groups. He is the author of the article on religious architecture in the Encyclopedia of New Jersey, and of an article on Methodist churches in New Jersey History (Spring/Summer 2004). Greenagel is readying eight new books—a photographic inventory of all the 18th and 19th century religious architecture of Hunterdon, Burlington, Cumberland, Mercer, Morris, Warren, Sussex, and Somerset counties, and hopes eventually to finish a complete inventory for every county.
