Dana is correct. The map is on the wall of the society library to the left
of the door. But more important is that copies were made of the quadrants and
property owner names in each township were indexed by volunteers and are
available in the library. One just has to know to ask for the index of names.
That reprinted map is the best mid-19th century resource of Hunterdon County
people and could be coordinated with the 1850 census, all thirty years before
Snell's 1882 History of Hunterdon.
