The Barnegat-Pennsauken line

1674 - 1676

The Barnegat - Pennsauken Line was established by grant giving Carteret the northern part of New Jersey. Never surveyed.

The Quintipartite /Lawrence line

1676 / 1743 / 1855 - present

The true line specified by the 1676 Quintipartite Deed between Carteret, Billinge, Penn, Lawrie and Lucas, but not adequately surveyed until 1743. Determined finally, by the New Jersey Supreme Court in 1855, to be the legal line for property settlements (George Cornelius and Christian D. Empson vs. James Giberson, 25 N.J.L. 1; Sup. Ct. 1855).
