2019 Map of Boonton

About this map

Splitrock Reservoir sits at the center of this Morris County landscape, surrounded by the high elevations of the Stony Brook Mountains and Rock Pear Mtn. The region is defined by a dense network of water bodies and historical small settlements like Hibernia, Beach Glen, and Meriden. To the south, the Rockaway River winds past the developed centers of Boonton and Denville, illustrating the shift from the wooded uplands of Kinnelon to the suburban valleys of Mountain Lakes. Genealogists will find a high concentration of burial grounds, including the Union Chapel Cem and Winters Cem near Marcella, and the Greenwood Cem in the south. The transition from industrial-era hamlets to modern residential areas is visible through the infrastructure surrounding Lake Hiawatha and Fox Hill, while landmarks like Pyramid Mtn anchor the eastern terrain.
