UHEC completes first phase of "Ukrainians in New Jersey" project
Posted on December 30, 2024
The UHEC is proud to announce the completion of the first phase of its project on the history of Ukrainian immigrants (and their descendents) in the State of New Jersey, which covers the period up to but not including the mass wave of post-World War II refugees. Despite there being Ukrainians living in New Jersey in measurable numbers since the 1880s, there has been a surprising lack of historical secondary sources on their history. This project is an attempt to remedy this.
