Last December, a New Jersey-based blogger (Christopher Knowles) traveled to the infamous tree, and posted a short travelogue with some photos. He didn't give exact driving directions or GPS coordinates, though.

| I believe the story of the Aleister Crowley Tree was first revealed by Marcelo Motta, though I have a vague recollection of McMurtry having written about it as well. I tend to believe she did throw the ashes out after an emotional arguement with Karl Germer. We are talking about a woman who experienced extreme emotional sways. Sascha Germer seems to be almost a pitiable character, a sad story in the annals of Thelema to be sure. |

I wrote the Weird NJ article with Mark Sceurman about Crowley's burial site. I happen to live in Hampton, NJ. (And believe it or not, NJ is not mostly smoke stacks--we are very rural out West and South). I have discovered via leads from that article that 1. Karl Germer's house still exists, and 2. It is not in Hampton proper, but rather in Changewater, which is in Lebanon Township. This second piece of info coincides with the deed to the property, which says that it is in Lebanon Township. Hampton was most likely associated with the site because it was the post office for the entire area. I know that Germer had a P.O. Box in the Hampton post office.
From what I've been told, the current owner of the property will shoot anyone who goes near it, and/or is quick to call the cops, so I'm trying to use my social networks in Changewater to get to the site. If I have any updated info, I will let you know.

| Yes, Labanon Township seems to be the place. Germer's NJ address was P.O. Box in Hanpton which did not mean that he actually lived in that town. |

SororBrigid,
93
An excellent article - thanks for the update. Fascinating research for a previous fellow New Jersian such as myself!
Like I've said before - its a great place to be buried and/or spread - if you don't beleive it - go and visit!
Best.
93 93/93,

I'm curious to find out what happened to Crowley's ashes. My understanding is that he was cremated on the day after he died in Brighton but what happened to his remains? it seems apity that he has no grave or similar memorial.
Does anyone have any information? |

In the galleries on this website I posted some scans of one of my old catalogues (Catalogue #9, circa 1990), in which I had listed several letters from Bryant & Sons, Funeral Directors, Hastings, to Freida Harris & Louis Wilkinson pertaining to the dispersal of Crowley's ashes.
The funeral directors were instructed to send the ashes to Karl Germer at an address in NYC.
These images can be found in the galleries > Miscellanea:
