Singerman notes just one item, (the present work), printed in Vineland. The story of the Jewish community of Vineland, New Jersey, a city in southern New Jesey, is rather unique in the annals of American Jewish history. Founded in 1882 as an agricultural colony by the Baron de Hirsch Fund, it remains to this very day a center of Jewish-owned poultry farms. See EJ, Vol.XVI, cols. 157-8.
