Accessed September 4, 2014.</ref> Author [[Henry Charlton Beck]] gave Timmins Mill the distinction of the approximate geographical center of New Jersey.<ref>[[Henry Charlton Beck|Beck, Henry, Charlton]]. [https://www.rutgersuniversitypress.org/forgotten-towns-of-southern-new-jersey/9780813510163 ''Forgotten Towns of Southern New Jersey''], p. 279. E.P. Dutton, 1936, reprinted 1961, [[Rutgers University Press]]</ref> Upon reading the estimate by Beck, a Christmas tree farmer used their own methods to approximate the geographic center of New Jersey to be on their farm. They have since placed a marker on the location they determined as the geographic center of New Jersey (Coordinates 40Β° 05β02β N Latitude 74Β° 32β 01β W longitude). The marker is on their farm located across the street from the [[New Egypt High School]].<ref>[https://www.state.nj.us/dep/njgs/enviroed/infocirc/NJCentersIC.pdf#page=2 Journey to the Centers of New Jersey], New Jersey Geological and Water Survey.
