2014 Map of Salem

About this map

Salem serves as the focal point of this region, situated at the confluence of the Salem River and Fenwick Creek. The landscape is defined by its extensive wetlands and water systems, including the Mannington Meadows Lake and the winding Alloway Creek to the south. Historically significant crossings such as the Penns Neck Bridge and Fenwick Bridge connect the residential core with outlying agricultural and industrial sites like Mannington Mills and Pointers. The settlement pattern follows established corridors, branching out to smaller communities such as Quinton, Hancocks Bridge, and Hagerville. Local landmarks like the Salem Airfield and Marlboro Marina reflect a modern economy integrated with the traditional river-front geography, while the Evergreen Cem provides a point of interest for those researching local family history and genealogy in the Salem County area.
