About this map

The Maurice River and its numerous tributaries, including Scotland Run and Still Run, define the hydrology of this southern New Jersey landscape. The map highlights a series of small, interconnected settlements and early agricultural communities such as Brotmanville, Alliance, and Six Points. These locations, particularly Alliance, are significant for their history as Jewish agricultural colonies established in the late 19th century, with the Alliance Cemetery serving as a primary genealogical landmark for the region.

Industrial and recreational footprints are visible through features like Malaga Lake and the Malaga Camp, alongside specialized aviation sites like Rudys Airport and Kroelinger Airport. The convergence of rail and road infrastructure at Newfield and Malaga illustrates the area's development as a transport node. From the Janvier Cemetery in the north to the residential patterns of North Vineland in the south, the map documents a transition from rural crossroads to more established suburban and agricultural townships.
