Paulsboro

Paulsboro is a pictorial account of a Delaware River community that evolved from an agriculture and shad-fishing center to an industrial town with developing oil companies. Once known as Crown Point, Paulsboro was named after colonist Philip Paul, who settled in this area in 1685. It is the home of Fort Billings, which became the nation's first federal land purchase on July 5, 1776, and of the famed Tinicum Lighthouse.
