1920 Map of Little Egg Harbor

About this map

Tuckerton and the surrounding marshlands of the New Jersey shore are meticulously documented in this 1920 reprint of a military survey. The landscape is defined by the complex aquatic networks of Little Egg Harbor and the Mullica River, where countless tidal thoroughfares like Shooting Thoro. and Long Point Thoro weave through islands such as Wells Island and Barrel Islands. This era shows a coastal economy still deeply tied to the land and sea, evidenced by the inland Cranberry Bog and the Stafford Forge site along the Tuckerton Railroad.
