History & geography

Geography

Hibernia is in northern Morris County, just south of the geographic center of Rockaway Township. It is bordered to the north by the community of Lake Telemark and to the south by the community of White Meadow Lake. County Route 513 (Green Pond Road) passes through Hibernia, leading north to Green Pond and to New Jersey Route 23 at Newfoundland, while to the south it leads less than to Rockaway borough. The community sits at an elevation of in the valley of Hibernia Brook, between hills which rise to elevations over to the east and west. Hibernia Brook flows south toward Beaver Brook and is part of the Rockaway River watershed leading east to the Passaic River. Since 1970, the former Methodist Episcopal Church on Green Pond Road has been used as a branch of the Rockaway Township Free Public Library.
