1956 Map of Dorothy

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines cuts a sharp diagonal through this South Jersey landscape, anchoring the development of small communities like Dorothy and Mizpah. This mid-century survey reveals a transition from traditional forest industries to more modern recreational and residential uses, evidenced by the Atlantic City Girl Scout Camp on the Great Egg Harbor River and the grid-like planning of Gigantic City. The interior is characterized by dense woodland drained by the South Branch Stephen Creek and James Branch, with old industrial roots still visible at Walkers Forge.
