About this map

Mount Holly and the surrounding townships of Burlington County are defined by the winding network of the North Branch Rancocas Creek and South Branch Rancocas Creek. This landscape is deeply rooted in early industry and agriculture, evidenced by several historic mill sites such as Kirbys Mill on the Southwest Branch South Branch Rancocas Creek, and the former industrial hubs of Oliphants Mills and Christopher Mills.

Family history researchers can trace numerous sacred grounds throughout the quadrangle, including the Eastern Union Cemetery and Peacock Cemetery. The area’s aviation history is also prominent, with South Jersey Regional Airport, Burlington County Airpark, and Flying W Airport clustered in the central corridor. This geography reflects a transition from colonial-era water power to modern transportation, while maintaining the rural character of sites like Johnson's Corner Farm amidst growing settlements like Medford and Lumberton.
