2011 Map of Williamstown

About this map

Sicklerville and Williamstown anchor this 2011 map of the New Jersey Pine Barrens fringe, where residential developments meet established agricultural areas. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Great Egg Harbor River, which flows past the New Brooklyn Dam and through the New Brooklyn Lake recreation area. A distinct mix of traditional settlements like Cecil and Chesilhurst are contrasted with more modern lake communities such as Timber Lakes and Victory Lakes in the south. Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy landmarks including the Hopewell Cemetery and uniquely named agricultural sites like Lots of Love Farm. The eastern edge of the map shows the influence of the regional rail and road corridors passing through Blue Anchor and Braddock, illustrating the gradual transition from the suburbanized corridor to the more open spaces of the Atlantic drainage basin.
