About this map

Bernardsville and its surrounding borough settlements anchor this study of north-central New Jersey's suburban and wooded landscape. The upper reaches of the Passaic River and the Dead River define the local drainage, feeding industrial and recreational sites like the Van Dorans Mill Pond and Osborn Pond. The map reveals a dense network of local-history markers, including the landmark Stone House and the extensive Millington Quarry.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial grounds, such as Saint Bernards Cemetery, Bishop Janes Cemetery, and the Holy Cross Cemetery. The area's heritage as a center for country estates and early industry is reflected in features like the Somerset Hills Golf Course, the Van Dorans Mills, and named agricultural sites such as Wightman's Farm and Middle Valley Farm. Topographical landmarks like Mine Mountain and Pill Hill overlook the developing residential corridors of Basking Ridge and Lyons.
