All,

I received a PM questioning the location that Google Maps and Google Earth displays as Aserdaten, and I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this? I thought it was quite funny that for some reason Google thinks the former housing development of Carusoville is Aserdaten. How this info gets on Google is beyond me, and maybe the new feature that allows anyone to add info to Google maps is the reason for this.

Carusoville was a small development on the Webbs Mill Branch not far from Bamber Lake and Camp Columbus. According to bobpbx the residents were forced to move in the early 80’s because of contamination concerns with their septic systems. One of the residents repaired alternators on his property and was the last one to vacate, and all that is left is a paved street with curbs. Hardly the lost town of Aserdaten that Beck wrote about 70 years ago.

Thank you for straightening out this misconception,i was astonished when i saw this,and i am in %100 agreement on the new features available, where do they get this info from? and also about posting a pic about the location,the pic on rt.72 at coyle field was nice to look at,but thank the heavens as of yet nothing was posted on a snake den location,rare flower,etc.,i fear the worst is yet to come,where next?

Wow, it even shows Red Oak Grove with Rt. 539 passing right through it! And Great Bay blvd. in Tuckerton is marked as Mystic Island. Learn something new everyday (sarcasm)

If you use Google Earth it is more accure with Red Oak Grove.

I have noticed a few inconsistencies with some locations out my way but they only changed recently. Is it possible corrupt information replaces good during some routine updates/purges?
