1948 Map of Bridgeton

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The Maurice River and Cohansey River define the industrial and maritime layout of this 1940s landscape, as the towns of Bridgeton, Vineland, and Millville center a complex network of agriculture and industry. Long-established milling sites such as Rammel Mills, Irlands Mills, and Lummis Mill are scattered along the creeks, while the Cumberland and Maurice River Railroad and the West Jersey and Seashore RR facilitate transport toward the Delaware Bay. The map captures the southern New Jersey marshlands and forests in detail, specifically the dense Bear Swamp and the expansive Glades near the coast. Small coastal outposts like Newport, Dividing Creek, and Mauricetown reflect a reliance on the river systems for commerce, situated just above the tidal flats of Dutch Neck and Sayres Neck.
