Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use American English Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox settlement Byram Township is a township in Sussex County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey. As of the 2020 United States census, the township's population was 8,028,[1][2] a decrease of 322 (−3.9%) from the 2010 census count of 8,350,[3][4] which in turn reflected an increase of 96 (+1.2%) from the 8,254 counted in the 2000 census.[5]

The municipality is known as the "Township of Lakes", as there are roughly two dozen lakes and ponds within its borders.[6]

History

Byram Township was created by an act by the New Jersey General Assembly on February 5, 1798, from portions of the now-defunct Newton Township, and was incorporated on February 21, 1798, as one of New Jersey's initial group of 104 townships.[7] The township was named for the Byram family, who were early settlers in the area.[7][8][9] Patriarch Jephthah Byram and his family, were believed to have emigrated to the area after the American Revolutionary War.[8] Before being named Byram, the community had been called Lockwood, and the Lockwood Tavern continued to hold this original name until its demolition in 2015. In 1829, a section of Green Township was incorporated into the township.[7] Portions of the township have been taken to form Sparta Township (April 14, 1845), Brooklyn borough (March 24, 1898, now called Hopatcong) and Stanhope borough (March 24, 1904).[7]

There are many historical sites located in Byram. The town's oldest structure, the 1802 Leport House, stands by the Byram General Store on Sparta-Stanhope Road.[10] The Lockwood Cemetery, established around 1818, consists of about 30 gravestones and the remnants of a church's foundation. The 1853 Roseville Schoolhouse was moved from its original location on Lackawanna Drive to Mansfield Drive, reopening in September 1986 as the Roseville Schoolhouse Museum.[11][12]

In 1911, the Lackawanna Cut-Off rail line opened through Byram Township, with a station stop near the current Forest Lakes neighborhood. The Cut-Off was part of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad's mainline from Hoboken, New Jersey to Buffalo, New York. The railroad was important in providing transportation for mines in Northern Jersey. It passes through Byram for a long distance. It runs mainly along Roseville, but as Roseville veers north, the tracks continue west. The line was abandoned in 1980 and the tracks were removed four years later. There is a proposal to reactivate passenger service via NJ Transit in the future, with work underway at the Roseville Tunnel.[13]

In 2001, then-mayor Richard Bowe called for an investigation of weather forecasters due to a snowstorm that had been forecast but never materialized, arguing that forecasters should be held responsible for the "excessive overtime costs" that the township experienced and for losses of local businesses shut in advance of the predicted snowfall.[14]

Mining

Byram Township had a very large mining industry in the past. There are so many mineral mines in Byram that there is one almost walking distance from anywhere. The biggest mine, The Roseville Mine, is located on the current Roseville Road. The mine is in a quadrilateral plot of land, with the southwestern corner created by Roseville Road and Amity Road. The southeastern corner is created by an intersection between Roseville Road and the Lackawanna Cut-off. The Roseville Mine was first excavated in the early 1850s. It was well worked during its life, with production in 1880 alone documented as 67,000 tons of ore. Most of the work was done via a large open cut. This cut as it exists today, is water-filled, with vertical walls as much as Шаблон:Convert high. The Charlotte Uranium mine extracted uranium from the rocks of southwestern Byram. The mine closed in the 1950s, but many remnants are still visible.

Geography

According to the United States Census Bureau, the township had a total area of 22.72 square miles (58.84 km2), including 21.53 square miles (55.76 km2) of land and 1.19 square miles (3.07 km2) of water (5.22%).[15][16] It is divided into several sections. They include the neighborhoods of Forest West, East and West Brookwood, Forest Lakes, Lackawanna, Cranberry Lake, and the Lake Mohawk area.

The township is known as the "Township of Lakes" because of the community's nearly two dozen lakes and ponds.[6]

Byram Center (with a 2010 Census population of 90[17]) is an unincorporated community and census-designated place (CDP) located within Byram Township. Lake Mohawk (with 1,824 out of the CDP's total 2010 Census population of 9,916 in the township[18]) is a CDP split between Byram Township and Sparta Township.[19][20][21]

Other unincorporated communities, localities and place names located partially or completely within the township include Brookwood East, Brookwood West, Cage Hill, Cranberry Lake, Forest Lakes, Jefferson Lake, Lake Lackawanna, Lockwood, Panther Pond, Roseville, Stag Pond, Tomahawk Lane, Waterloo, Wolf Lake and Wrights Pond.[22]

  • Punkhorn Creek runs through the township, flowing southwest from Lake Bottom, on the north side of and parallel with Amity Road, to Roseville Pond.

Residents of Byram are served by adjacent post offices in Stanhope, Andover Township and Sparta Township.[23]

Trails and hiking

Byram Township is known as the "Gateway to New Jersey Trails".[30]

The Sussex Branch Trail extends Шаблон:Convert from Netcong to Branchville, following the route of the old Sussex Railroad, a branch of the Erie Lackawanna Railway, which was in service under various ownerships from 1848 to 1966. Trail users can explore the route once used by steam locomotives and long freight trains.[31]

Parks

The township has several municipal parks:[32]

  • C.O. Johnson Park, named after former Byram mayor, Carl O. Johnson (Democrat). Carl was the mayor of Byram for 25 years. This park has a football field, baseball field, tennis court, skateboard park, and a track for walking. It has restrooms, a refreshment/snack area, and a picnic area with five tables with attached benches and two handicapped-accessible tables.[33]
  • Riverside Park is at the intersection of River Road and Waterloo Road in Byram Township. Opened in late summer 2001, it is Byram's newest park.

  • Brookwood Park is a small park that contains a basketball court in East Brookwood.[33]

Wild West City is a Dodge City-styled theme park located on County Route 607 (Lackawanna Drive)

Waterloo Village

Waterloo Village used to exhibit many time periods from a 400-year-old Lenape (Delaware) Native American village to a bustling port along the once prosperous Morris Canal. The early 19th-century village contained a working mill with gristmills and sawmills, a general store, a blacksmith shop and restored houses. Classical and popular music programs are available to the public during the summer months. Waterloo Village was shut down to preserve the artifacts inside, though plans have been made to restore the buildings on the site.[35]

Cranberry Lake

Cranberry Lake is a man-made lake, originally created in 1830 as a reservoir for the Morris Canal.[36] Cranberry Lake is bordered on the east by U.S. Route 206 and the Sussex Branch Trail. The local community is bordered on the north and south by Allamuchy Mountain State Park. The Cranberry Lake footbridge, one of the oldest pedestrian footbridges in NJ[37] transverses the lake from east to west and connects the west shore of the community with the Sussex Branch Trail.
