"It is
our hope that the children of
our school system may learn from
these pages and always be aware
of their heritage....."
The Egg Harbor Township Tercentenary
Committee dedicates this book
to our co-worker, Margaret Stahling
Cullen of Bargaintown, N. J. Because
of her tireless efforts and interest,
many may now and hereafter be
enlightened of the origin and
history of the township of which
we are so proud.
This edition is the result of
the enthusiasm for the historical
facts of Egg Harbor Township held
by Mrs. Cullen, a resident of
that community and one of the
editors of this book.
It is our hope that the children
of our school system may learn
from these pages and always be
aware of their heritage.

(letter)
The History of Egg Harbor Township
is a contribution to the New Jersey
Tercentenary Celebration of l964.
It is the fruit of endless hours
of research and fact collecting
about our 254 year old community.
A special note of recognition
is hereby given to Mr. Joseph
Henry Bennett, of English Creek,
N. J., whose efforts have resulted
in the plotting of the historical
maps showing the one time villages,
mills, shipyards, etc., that have
now been replaced by a new era
of civilization. Through the publication
of this book — may they always
he remembered.
