I appreciate all of the effort that went into the making of this video. I have learned much about my place of birth. Thank you!

What a wonderful video and history of Eagleswood which I had not heard of. I was born across the Raritan river in South Amboy, but grew up in Monmouth county, NJ. This video makes me want to learn more about the history of Perth Amboy and environs. Thank you for the great job.

Thank you for making this video. My great, great, great grandparents were Marcus and Rebeca Springer. I just found out about their life and all of the amazing things that happened at Eaglewood.

I understand that, toward the end of its occupancy, the Inness house was a local Perth Amboy house of ill repute.
