1895: The Crematory Remembered


Trenton was in the process of going with a crematory back in 1895. It was ultimately built and located in North Trenton, and as I recall, located off of Brunswick Avenue. Did you know that Hamilton Township had a crematory? Years ago, when Don Slabicki and I worked for the Kuser family, we would ride to the crematory with Fred Kuser, back the station wagon into the huge garage, and throw the trash down into a very deep, deep, flaming hole. The Hamilton Cematory was located off of Patterson Avenue. The smokestack towered high over the surrounding area.
