Piscopeek

Piscopeek was the Lenape name for the stream now known as Lawrence Brook, a tributary of the Raritan River in New Jersey. The brook flows north through a low, wooded landscape before joining the Raritan near New Brunswick. Its later name recalls Thomas Lawrence, a New York baker who acquired land in the vicinity in the seventeenth century. The stream and its tributaries drain a broad area south of the Raritan.
