About this map

Hanover Furnace and Mary Ann Furnace anchor this late-nineteenth-century portrait of the New Jersey Pine Barrens, where early industrial outposts were often built around local resources. The map captures a landscape defined by water-powered industry and specialized manufacturing, such as the Lebanon Glass Works and several milling operations including Burr's Mill and the Lower Mill. A sophisticated transportation network connects these remote works to larger markets via the Philadelphia and Long Branch Railroad and the New Jersey Southern Railroad. Topographic landmarks like Apple Pie Hill and Mount Misery rise above a dense network of tributaries including McDonald's Branch and Friendship Creek. Local history is preserved in the names of small communities and crossroads like Ong's Hat, Comical Corner, and Tabernacle.
