WILLIAM
J. HURLOCK was born in Wilmington, Delaware around 1879. Little is known
of his early days. Although no records seem to support this, his
obituary states that by the early 1890s he had moved to Stockton, which
was annexed by Camden in 1899, adding what in present times the areas
known as Cramer Hill and East
Camden. By the time the 1907 Camden City Directory was compiled, William J. Hurlock and family had moved to 2717 Cramer Street. His family maintained a presence at that address as late as 1970. Beginning in 1922 his neighbor at 123 North 28th Street was fellow Camden policeman John W. Golden. William J. Hurlock and John W. Golden would remain neighbors for the rest of their lives. The Hurlock family stayed at the Cramer Street address as late as 1970, the Goldens were still there as late as 1982. William J. Hurlock was appointed to the Camden Police Department on April 12, 1912. AFter serving as acting sergeant on a number of occasions, around 1923 he was promoted to Detective, and in the early 1920s often partnered with Louis C. Schlam. William J. Hurlock retired in 1933. A widower late in life, William J. Hurlock's wife Alice died on June 27, 1941 after an illness of an year and one-half. William J. Hurlock's last days were spent living with his son, William R. "Rex" Hurlock, a switchboard operator with the Camden Police Department, his daughter-in-law and his grandsons at 2717 Cramer Street. |

BOYS
HELD IN GEM THEFT Charged with the theft of a $725 diamond ring, two small boys were ordered held for Juvenile Court by Police Judge Pancoast yesterday. One of the boys, William McGinnis, 11, of 2639 Carman Street, had been released from the county detention home last Thursday on probation by Judge Shay. He had been one of six boys held in connection with a series of nine robberies in East Camden. The other boy is John Auletto, 10, of 2824 Howell Street. Mrs. Catherine Tydeman testified the pair had come to her apartment at Twenty-eighth Street and Westfield Avenue Thursday afternoon and told her she was wanted on the phone. Returning, she saw the two boys leaving her apartment, and a short time later she discovered that her pocketbook containing a $725 diamond ring was missing. District Detective William Hurlock arrested the pair at the Garfield School. He said he found the ring in their possession. Parents of the McGinnis boy pleaded for him before Judge Shay last Thursday and said he was "backward" because of a fractured skull he had suffered in an accident. |
