EUGENE VAN ARTSDALEN MAGEE
Originally published in 1900 |
EUGENE VAN ARTSDALEN MAGEE, of Hoboken, was born in Jamesburg, N. J., December 2t, 1852. He is the son of Joseph C. and Elizabeth
(Van Artsdalen) Magee and a grandson of Jonathan Magee and Daniel Van
Artsdalen, and springs from a family whose members have long been
active and prominent in the State.
Mr. Magee was educated at Freehold Institute in Freehold, N. J., and for a time was in the First National Bank of Jamesburg. In 1871 he went to New York City, where he added to his practical knowledge of business affairs. He engaged in the business of clothiers' trimmings in 1880, and so continued with marked success until 1894, when the death of his brother-in-law caused a change in his commercial relations. He then associated himself with his father-in-law, William H. Harper, in the real estate and insurance business in Hoboken, of which he is the manager and proprietor. This agency dates back to 1860, and conducts an extensive business throughout Hudson County. Mr. Magee is an expert in all matters connected with real property and, whenever differences of opinion in respect to values arise, his judgment is accepted as final. He is a resident of East Orange, a gentleman of excellent social and financial standing, and is held in much respect by all with whom he has business or personal relations. He is a member of the Munn Avenue Presbyterian Church of East Orange. He married Minnie Harper and has two children.
