About this map

Pittstown and the surrounding Hunterdon County countryside are defined by a network of historic crossroads and small settlements. This 2014 survey captures a landscape where colonial-era churchyards and modern infrastructure coexist, from the quiet grounds of the Allerton Methodist Church Yard to the Sky Manor Airport. The drainage patterns of the South Branch Raritan River and Lockatong Cr shape the terrain, influencing the placement of old hamlets like Quakertown, Sidney, and Croton.

Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the mapped religious and burial sites, including the Saint Thomas Episcopal Church Yard and the Locust Grove Cem. These landmarks, along with established corner settlements like Mechlings Corner and Gary Corner, provide a detailed look at the rural development and community hubs that have persisted through the early 21st century in central New Jersey.
