DESCRIPTION:Join us at the John F. Peto Studio Museum for a presentation by R. Joseph Latshaw III about the historic Old Methodist Cemetery\, located at the corner of Hooper Avenue and Washington Street in Toms River.

Joseph will also discuss preservation efforts for the two-hundred-year-old cemetery. \n\nJoseph is the historian for the First United Methodist Church of Toms River\, which oversees and manages the Old Methodist Cemetery. A lifelong resident of Toms River\, he has a degree in history from Kean University. Joseph is currently employed by the Ocean County Cultural and Heritage Commission. Additionally\, he serves as president of the Ocean County Historical Society\, chair of the Toms River Township Historic Preservation Commission\, and trustee for the League of Historical Societies of New Jersey.
