1951 Map of Pemberton

About this map

Pemberton and its neighboring villages in Burlington County are defined by the winding paths of the North Branch Rancocas Creek and South Branch Rancocas Creek. This post-war era landscape reveals a mix of old industrial activity and expanding institutional footprints, including the Brick Kilns near Birmingham and a cluster of county facilities like the Welfare Home and Newcomb Chest Hosp near New Lisbon. To the northeast, the Fort Dix Military Reservation occupies a significant portion of the terrain, while the southern reaches are dominated by agricultural and water-intensive land uses, notably the Budds Cranberry Bogs and the extensive Bear Swamp. The mapping of small, specific locales such as Comical Corners, Retreat, and Stop provides a precise view of the rural crossroads that linked these milling and farming communities together. Along the southern edge, the John Davison Rockefeller Memorial Highway serves as a major transit corridor through the pine-laden lowlands.
