1928: OBIT OF JOHN HERBERT, EARLY LAMBERTON RESIDENT

Men like John Herbert, a pioneer South Trenton African-American citizen, was descended from a black family whose roots go back to the years when the Lamberton-Bloomsbury-South Trenton area was the home of numerous Delaware River boatmen. It is interesting to note Mr. Herbert's educational background as he attended both Roman Catholic and Lutheran parochial schools in the boyhood.
