*Although Miss Dodd may not be descended from them, there had been Dodds (early documents have "Dod") in the Oranges since the late 17th century (Daniel Dod) and the first Dods had a sawmill and a copper mine and their area eventually became known as Doddtown. The family property was on the "Second River," as it was called in the late 17th century, and the land was generally where Soverel Field and the southern end of Watessing Park are now.
**Miss Orr was my 3rd grade teacher in 1955/56, 21 years later
***Miss Garis is listed as leading the Stockton Audubon Society in a 1915 report. A former student writes that students, who had parental permission, walked to Branch Brook Park with Miss Garis one morning at 5 AM to hear the birds sing at daybreak.
****Mrs. Dutcher was the widow of Principal Edward Dutcher who had died in 1929
