Wiss Family Residences (2nd - 4th Generations)

By the end of the 1920s all of the Wiss family had moved out of Newark. They all would have had cars. (Louis had one by 1900, FCJ probably did also.) Many had chaufeurs. The suburbs beckoned. They wanted houses with more land. Two families bought more than one lot.

The residences in Short Hills include real estate records, some of which date to the 1930s or 1940s, were formerly owned and used by a Maplewood real estate office that was closing. The Short Hills entries were scanned by The Millburn-Short Hills Historical Society.
