Years ago our family had 2 trailers on Moores Beach for summer get-aways. Not the best of beaches, usually tons of stinking dead crabs!

I’m 23 years old. I’ve lived in Heislerville my whole life with my family. My grandparents and dad always used to tell me about Thompson’s Beach back in the day but it was so difficult to believe. This story really touched me and I’m grateful to learn and see it for myself. Thank you for creating this!

Wow!!!! This is a really fantastic video. I've been coming here for 20yrs, I love history and have always searched this place and this video is amazing. I enjoy the guests in your video that make it more personal... You explain everything and thank you so much for taking the time to make this. Once I found this container with ( ???son N. Klein) name on the front. How cool to think it could be related to the last name of the restaurant.....

Hi Cynthia, I'm really glad you enjoyed the video and that also enjoy Thompson's Beach. That's really interesting about the container. I'm sure it was related to one of the Klein's!

I am 63, my mom 101. We came to the meeting 2 years ago. My parents had just returned from their Honeymoon on Nov. 1950. My dad, Joe and grandparents, Joe and Margaret had a little boating/fishing business and house. Franchetta was my maiden name. I think they acquired/built the ace in 1949. My Uncle George had to get my grandmom to leave that day...she wanted to stay. The house was pushed across the street. My mom talks of "KKEINEE"...holding onto to a electricity pole or on the roof to survive. Houses pushed 1 mile away. My grandparents' place is somewhere now on rte. 40... i wish i knew where. My dad was so upset he never went back to Thompson's Beach. We would drive there in the early 1990's. Once a year I drive there and reflect.

This is a great report. I would love to see you do one for Moores Beach also. As a child raised in Delmont, I can remember walking with friends all the way out to the beach to play the jukebox and buy a5 cent hamburger from the little store that a family from South Philly opened up every summer. All before Hurricane Donna in 1962.

There was also a bad storm surge in October of 1980 that destroyed many homes. Almost everyone there that weekend was trapped as the tide was so much higher than normal that the road flooded out before anyone had a chance to leave. My family owned a single story home on the inland side of Delaware ave (ran parallel with the beach) and water was waist to chest deep in their home. They also witnessed a friend's house which was raised on the bay side go down that day.

Hi Carol, I heard some rumblings it was from the Thompson family in the area, including a decorated Captain from the Cumberland Militia that served in the Revolutionary War.

Unsure if you've done the morristown area, but that's a gold mine. The folks who run the Philip van Horne house are a wealth of knowledge for Somerset County as well. And Fort Mott State Park might also be a neat place to visit, that or Sandy Hook. Unsure of these already have videos
