Named as an official district as early as 1693, it was bounded on the north by the Little Egg Harbor River (now known as the Mullica River ), and on the south by the Great Egg Harbor River and its southern branch the Tuckahoe River . Its eastern boundary was the Atlantic Ocean , but the western boundary in the South Jersey interior was not fixed until 1761.
