Way of Life

The way of life in the New Jersey was very focused on family, religion, and the father's business or occupation.  Families maintained a peaceful co-existence with the local Lenni- Lanape.  Holidays were always celebrated way different than a normal American would celebrate it.  Girls would help the mother with the housework and the gardens, and the boys would help the fathers' in the fields or in the other buisness'.
