    Goshen in Camden or Burlington?

    After finding out the age of that bottle. I got thinking more about the timeline of Goshen. I realized that I haven’t given much thought to the end of it. We know that the Vermeule and Cook maps show the cranberry bogs there in 1887 and 1889. My gut feeling is they didn’t last much past the turn...

    Goshen in Camden or Burlington?

    This weekend my son and I found enough time to do a little more exploring around Goshen. We were able to locate a couple of small cellar holes. Nearby a plow line passes through and in the burn sticking up was a bottom of a bottle that looked old. After cleaning it up and a little research on...

    Also it almost looks like it continues across to the other side of the river as well

    Verizon FIOS Outage

    I’ve had fios pretty much since they started and have never had a problem. My wife switched to comcast when we moved in 2007 and we had nothing but problems and went back after a few months.

    Thanks for sharing this. I didn’t realize how small the lots were for the deed you mentioned. I guess those aren’t the cripples after all.

    Spung Man, Could the two unnamed cripples be here: https://maps.njpinebarrens.com/#lat=39.76067651613298&lng=-74.80319889237545&z=15&type=nj1930&gpx= They are a bit away from the Atsion river and Goshen pond but those would be the closest identifiable landmarks at the time. I also suspect...

    Shoreline Challenge

    My grandfather built a house in Kitty Hawk in the ‘80’s on the sound side. I spent a lot of time down there years ago. The ocean has been claiming homes down there constantly. Rodanthe has been losing and moving homes a lot in the last decade. There is no way I’d have a home on the beach down there

    Beavers really backed it up over the past few years there. It’s surly quieter now too.

    DEP Announces Virtual Public Meeting to Launch Wharton State Forest Visitor and Vehicle Use Survey

    All the points you brought up I have thought about as well. I even take it a step further and often think what is the “best” thing for the pines? The best tool I can think of to get some insight on what the pine were like almost 100 years ago is the 1930’s aerials. When I look at them I see...

    Goshen in Camden or Burlington?

    I have found a few possible cellar holes along old Atsion Road and in the surrounding area. Some seem back off the road a ways. Also several of the roads around there were widened for feeder strips. Those disturbed anything that was close to the road. Also I’m sure we’re talking a span of over...

    Sound cool I didn’t think of that. I could see it better then the pictures came out. I actually thought trying to hold up my polarized sunglasses up to the phone but I left them at home lol

    Goshen in Camden or Burlington?

    As I mentioned we made it out today and visited a few locations. Supporting my theory that Goshen Neck was very spread out and covered a large area we found a few more cellar holes. Also I revisited where I was last week here...
