About this map

The New Jersey Wildlife and Game Refuge and the headwaters of the Toms River dominate this Central Jersey landscape, where the transition from agriculture to military use and conservation is clearly visible. The map documents the northern reaches of the Fort Dix Military Reservation and the Lakehurst Naval Air Station, contrasting with the numerous Cranberry Bogs that dot the lowlands. Local genealogy and community life center on Cassville and St Vladimirs, the latter featuring Saint Vladimirs Ch.

Industry and recreation are reflected in sites like Colliers Mills and the New Egypt Speedway. The presence of many family-named waterways, including Bordens Mill Brook and Hartshorne Mill Stream, suggests a history of localized milling operations and long-standing property lines. These established settlements and rural landmarks sit alongside the developing infrastructure of the mid-20th century, such as a Microwave Tower and several remote Towers.
