About this map

Greenwich and the salt marshes of the Delaware Bay shoreline dominate this late nineteenth-century survey, revealing a landscape defined by tidal creeks and early colonial settlements. The interior of Cumberland and Salem counties shows a network of small agricultural villages such as Shiloh and Roadstown, connected by a web of roads that avoid the low-lying wetlands. The maritime economy is evident through features like Laning Wharf and the Cohansey Light Old Light, which served the shipping lanes of the Delaware River.
