1951 Map of Indian Mills

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

Cranberry Bogs and intricate water systems dominate this mid-century landscape in Burlington County, reflecting the specialized agriculture of the New Jersey Pine Barrens. The map reveals a transition from historic industrial sites like Hampton Furnace to established settlements such as Indian Mills and Tabernacle. Waterways like Bread and Cheese Run and the Batsto River wind through the township boundaries of Shamong and Southampton, feeding into Indian Mills Lake. Evidence of the region's transport and milling history is clear, with the Central Railroad of New Jersey cutting through the southern reach near High Crossing, while former mill sites like Moores Mill indicate the earlier economic drivers of the area. This survey captures a specific moment when rural post-war development began to interface with the traditional bog-iron and berry-growing landscapes of the Pinelands.
