1954 Map of Stockton

About this map

The Delaware River serves as the focal point for this 1950s study of the borderlands between Hunterdon County, New Jersey, and Bucks County, Pennsylvania. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Wickecheoke Creek and Alexauken Creek, which carve through the landscape toward the river. Near the center of the sheet, the Green Sergeant Covered Bridge remains a prominent landmark, crossing the creek near Sergeantsville. The settlement pattern reflects the agricultural and industrial history of the valley, with compact boroughs like Stockton and Lambertville situated along the Pennsylvania Railroad line.
