| Barnegat Light

The northern tip of Long Beach Island has been occupied for several hundred years by native Americans, the Military, commercial fishermen, summer visitors, and permanent residents. It's current history goes back to 1609 when Barnegat Inlet, from which the town gets its name, was first sighted by Henry Hudson. The area that is now known as Barnegat Light was described in a deed from the English Crown in 1692. |

| Harvey Cedars
|
|
Over the years the original Harvey who gave Harvey Cedars its name has lived in either a cave burrowed into a hummock or in a shack under a grove of cedar trees near what is now the Harvey Cedars Bible Conference. But from a 1751 deed we now know that our Harvey is as ephemeral as Harvey the Rabbit. In the deed, the locality was designated as "a hammock and clump of cedars called Harvest Quarters." And if you say "harvest cedars" often and fast enough, harvest will be clipped to harves -- and it's only a brief skip of the mouth to Harvey. |

Ship Bottom is one of the oldest place names on Long Beach Island. According to the local historian John Bailey Lloyd, author of "Six Miles at Sea," the name dates from an unusual shipwreck that occurred in March, 1817. |
