The Maurice River dominates the eastern landscape of this New Jersey survey, carving a path through the lowlands between Millville and the salt marshes near Leesburg. The region is defined by its extensive wetlands, including the broad Buckshutem Swamp and Cub Swamp, which are fed by numerous tributaries like Buckshutem Creek and Dividing Creek. Settlement patterns reflect the historic reliance on these waterways, with villages such as Mauricetown, Port Norris, and Haleyville positioned to access the river systems. Several historic burial grounds, such as the Dividing Creek Baptist Cem and Haleyville United Methodist Church Cem, provide anchor points for genealogical research. To the north, the Millville Municipal Airport introduces a modern utility to this otherwise traditional landscape of millponds and coastal plains.
