1894 Map of Bay Side

USGS Topo · Published 1902

About this map

The salt marshes and tidal estuaries of the lower Delaware River dominate this late 19th-century survey. Cohansey Creek snakes through the landscape past Greenwich, where Laning Wharf once served maritime trade. The interior coastal plain is dotted with small agricultural settlements like Shiloh, Roadstown, and Jericho, connected by the early rail lines of the Southern New Jersey R. R. and the N. J. S. R. R.. Navigation remains a central theme for the region, marked by the Cohansey Light and the offshore Ship John Light.
