About this map

Sourland Mtn defines the western heights of this landscape, where the settlements of Zion and Rock Mill sit along the slopes of Cat Tail Brook. This 2016 survey illustrates the modern layout of suburban development and rural preservation across Somerset County, as US Highway 206 serves as a primary north-south artery connecting Belle Mead, Harlingen, and Rocky Hill. The eastern edge is defined by the historic corridor of the Millstone River and the parallel Delaware and Raritan Canal, which remain major landmarks of the regional infrastructure.

Genealogists will find several burial grounds documented, including Unionville Cem and the Harlingen Reformed Cem. The map reveals how local hydrology, such as Beden Brook and Pike Run, continues to shape the orientation of residential growth and the placement of local facilities like the Princeton Airport. This contemporary study provides an exact record of the hamlets of Blawenburg, Skillman, and Neshanic as they appear today.
