About this map

The Delaware River and the parallel Delaware and Raritan Canal form a historic transportation corridor along the western edge of this Mercer County landscape. In the north, the terrain rises toward Pennington Mtn and Baldpate Mtn, overlooking a series of longstanding settlements like Harbourton and Marshalls Corner. The central borough of Pennington serves as a hub for the surrounding township, connected by traditional routes such as the Pennington Titusville Rd.

Further south, the character of the land shifts toward the institutional and suburban growth of Ewing and West Trenton. Significant local landmarks include The Coll of New Jersey and the Trenton Mercer Airport. Genealogists will find numerous established burial grounds, ranging from the Washington Crossing United Methodist Cem near the river to the Saint Hedwig's Cem and Fountain Lawn Memorial Park in the more densely settled southern neighborhoods of Ewingville and Fernwood.
