Berkeley Heights, NJ. Now if the Bomgarden family lived there circa 1969, we have game, set and match for you.

Martha-Ann Bomgardner

born on July 31, 1953 in Ft. Knox, Kentucky

1971 graduate of Rancocas Valley Regional High School in Mount Holly ...
"Graf, who first met the future Mrs. Alito while teaching sophomore-year honors English" Puts Bomgardner in Mount Holly in '68-'69 (and possibly earlier)

student at Rutgers University inn France, 1973-1974
BA from the University of Kentucky in 1975
MSL.S. from the University of Kentucky in 1977

Back then, she was known by her maiden name, Martha-Ann Bomgardner. Born in Fort Knox, Ky., she and her family moved to Mount Holly (PA, Philly burb) after her father, an air traffic controller in the Air Force, was transferred to McGuire Air Force Base. Her mother also worked as a librarian on the base. Her parents now live in Mansfield.

Dead also asserts that Martha-Ann Bomgardner knew Mary Jo Kopechne fairly well, which indicates a certain amount of time together -- a good part of a day during a BBQ, for example.

I really have no more information than I posted on this thread, so I don't know how they came to be family friends , how closely they knew each other, or if the families are still in contact.

All I know is that Judge Alito's mother said that Judge Alito's wife's family was friends with the Kopechne family and the Judge's wife knew Mary Jo.

I tried Googling around to find more, but there is a real suprising lack of information on Mary Jo and her family, outside of that one particular night.
