2014 Map of Pompton Plains

About this map

Pompton River drainage patterns and suburban development define this north Jersey landscape where the borders of Morris, Passaic, and Essex counties converge. This 2014 edition illustrates the dense residential layout of Pompton Plains, Wayne, and Pequannock, set against the rising elevations of Waughaw Mtn and Pyramid Mtn. The map preserves the traces of early infrastructure, notably the Morris Canal winding through Towaco, and the historic thoroughfare of the Paterson-Hamburg Tpke. Genealogists will find numerous burial grounds documented, from the Mt Rest Cem and Brown Cem in the north to the Pine Brook Cem and Clinton Cem further south. Modern aviation is represented by the Essex County Airport, while the region's managed water resources are prominent through the Point View Reservoir and Taylortown Reservoir.
