2019 Map of Green Bank

About this map

The Mullica River and its intricate network of tidal creeks define this coastal Pine Barrens landscape, where the border between Atlantic and Burlington counties follows the winding river channel. Traditional South Jersey settlements like Green Bank, Lower Bank, and Sweetwater anchor the northern reaches, while the grid of Egg Harbor City and Germania dominates the southwest. This modern survey provides a detailed look at the interface between the dense marshlands of the Hog Islands and the upland pine forests. Genealogists will find significant local history markers in the Germania Cem and the Clarks Mill Burial Ground near Port Republic. The map also captures the hydraulic importance of the Wading River and Tarkiln Branch in a region historically defined by its reliance on these waterways for transport and industry.
