1953 Map of Newfield

About this map

The Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines cuts through the heart of the New Jersey Pine Barrens region, connecting established agricultural settlements like Franklinville and Malaga in the early 1950s. This survey illustrates the intricate boundary intersections of Gloucester, Salem, and Cumberland counties, where the Maurice River and Scotland Run define the low-lying terrain. To the south, the map reveals the layout of Brotmanville and Alliance, communities with deep roots in late 19th-century Jewish agrarian history.
