About this map

Cohansey River drainage patterns define this landscape south of Bridgeton, where tidal creeks and marshlands meet the agricultural uplands of Cumberland County. The area is characterized by long-established crossroads and milling sites, such as Mickles Mill and Sheppards Mill, which served the local farming communities. Small settlements like Shiloh, Roadstown, and Greenwich are connected by a network of historic roads, including the Columbia Hwy and Shiloh Pike.

The presence of numerous family-named landmarks and cemeteries, such as Fernwood Cem and Cedar Hill Cem, provides significant detail for genealogists. Water bodies like Seeley Pond, Elk Lake, and Rhodo Lake highlight the historical reliance on local water power and resources. To the west, the border with Salem County follows Stow Creek, marking a transition toward more remote wetlands near Bacons Neck.
