I have been reading a number of old newspaper articles about deer hunting in the Pines. Several stories from the 1930s make mention of a popular hunting area called “The Triangle”. Many other more familiar places like Hog Wallow, Four Mile, Woodmansie, Goose Pond, and the Barnegat Plains are referenced too. Presumably the area is not far from Chatsworth. I was wondering if anyone ever heard the old-timers talk about the place and where exactly it might have been.
The most tangible lead I have is the following account: Bill Simmons, of Heath Manor, had little difficulty in getting his venison. With three companions, he was hunting in a cranberry bog along the Plains Road, near the Chatsworth Road. The spot is embraced in what is known to Trenton hunters as “The Triangle”.
Surely the Plains Road is Route 72 but what is the Chatsworth Road? 532? 563? Savoy?
Thoughts?
