1957 Map of Keswick Grove

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Cranberry Bogs define the industrial and agricultural character of this New Jersey landscape, which spans parts of Manchester, Dover, and Berkeley townships. The map documents a significant intersection of transportation history, showing the Central Railroad of New Jersey and the Pennsylvania Railroad cutting through the Pine Barrens alongside an Old Railroad Grade. Small settlements like Keswick Grove and Cedar Crest are isolated by a dense network of water bodies, including Bamber Lake, Keswick Lake, and numerous branches of Cedar Creek. Cultural landmarks such as the William Raws Monument and the Park Rod and Gun Club reflect the local social history, while the John Davison Rockefeller Memorial Highway provides a major arterial through the wooded terrain. This 1957 field-checked survey reveals an era before suburban expansion, where the economy was still deeply tied to the specific hydrology of the Cedar Swamp.
