Many of the early settlers are buried in the cemetery in West Collingswood. Yup--I suspect the author listed it this way because none of the mills were actually in Collingswood although judging from the map (which is an 1846 map) two of the mills, Albertson's and Breach's, appear to be on opposite sides of the South Branch of Newton Creek. It is hard to judge from the roads in existence at that time and shown on the map just which township (current) those mills were in--they appear to be just west of the road that today would be Clements Bridge Road and south of the White Horse Pike (which existed at that time).
