2011 Map of Port Elizabeth

About this map

The Maurice River dominates the western landscape of this coastal New Jersey corridor, anchoring a string of maritime-influenced settlements including Port Elizabeth, Mauricetown, and Leesburg. This 2011 survey documents a region where water and sand define the economic and physical layout, with the Manumuskin River winding through the center toward the interior. The map reveals an intricate network of smaller watercourses like Muskee Creek and West Creek, many tied to historic industry as seen at Jones Mill and Hoffmans Mill. Evidence of historical water management is clear at the Cumberland Pond Dam in the north. Inland, the terrain rises slightly at Muskee Hill, while the road network connects smaller hubs such as Dorchester and Bricksboro to the surrounding woodland and wetlands. These roads, such as Port Elizabeth Cumberland Rd and Estell Manor Rd, follow the natural contours of the river valleys.
