1957 Map of Heislerville

About this map

Delaware Bay defines the southern reach of this coastal survey, where the marshes of Cumberland and Cape May Counties meet the tide. Along the upper margin, the State Prison Farm and Belleplain State Forest occupy significant acreage, contrasting with the scattered residential clusters at Heislerville, Leesburg, and Delmont. This landscape is heavily shaped by its hydrology, with an intricate network of waterways such as West Creek, East Creek, and the winding Dennis Creek feeding into the bay.
