Lincoln is a hamlet and unincorporated community in South Harrison Township, Gloucester County, in the U.S. state of New Jersey.[1]
Formerly known as Stringtown, it is located in the southeastern part of the township, near the border with Salem County. It contained a grist mill, saw mill and a few houses. The grist mill was purchased in 1828 by James Jessup, who then purchased the saw mill in 1833.[2]
