2016 Map of Califon

About this map

South Branch Raritan River anchors this landscape, flowing through a series of valley settlements including Vernoy, Lower Valley, and the borough of Califon. This modern survey illustrates the enduring rural character of the Hunterdon and Morris County border, where historic churchyards and cemeteries remain central landmarks. Locations like the Fairmount Presbyterian Church Yard and Cokesbury Methodist Church Yard provide specific points of reference for genealogists. To the south, the massive Round Valley Reservoir and nearby Cushetunk Lake dominate the geography, contrasted by the sharp rise of Hell Mtn and Cushetunk Mtn. The transport network reveals a mix of older routes like Co Rd 513 and the developed corridor near Lebanon and White House Station, while legacy sites such as McCrea Mills and Bissell point to the area's agricultural and milling roots.
