About this map

Jersey Homesteads anchors this wartime survey of central New Jersey, reflecting the unique social experiment of the New Deal era. This planned community, later renamed Roosevelt, stands out as a concentrated settlement amidst the traditional rural network of Monmouth County. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of several key drainages, including the Millstone River, Assunpink Creek, and Doctors Creek, which provided the water power for early local industry at sites like Francis Mills.
