Malaga, New Jersey

The First Shall be Last, and The Last First:  The first Albertsons arrived in North America in the 1600s, so that makes them among the "first" as well. Since then, however, the name and its bearers have spread across the United States and Canada. In all likelihood, however, few of them realize that they are descendants of royalty that takes them even farther back in time: Albert comes down to us as a derivative of King Ethelbert of Kent, who ruled in the 800s.  Malaga Cemetery.
