Brotman. of New York. took over the Gartman farm and built a large shop. eventually building up Brotmanville. While the farms were being cleared of stumps. the settlers were learning the rudiments of farming with the help of books and the advice of neighbors. Mostly they learned through experience. A major problem was education of the children. To get their children into Vineland High School. the immigrants had to pay the tuition personally. The youngsters usually rode their bicycles to school and when that was impossible a wagon had to be hired. Originally there were four synagogues. and a Sabbath school was inaugurated.
