The location should be described. There are aerial views of Seabrook Farms in NJDH that can illustrate this section https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seabrook_Farms

Citations to SOTA for agriculture in the late 19th/early 20th century would be a nice addition or future enhancement, if too much for now NJDH has photographs of farm machinery in use on the farm that should illustrate this section E.g., http://njdigitalhighway.org/search/results.php?q1=charles+franklin+seabrook&orderby=relevance&ppage=10&key=NJDH&numresults=1&start=12 http://njdigitalhighway.org/search/results.php?q1=charles+franklin+seabrook&orderby=relevance&ppage=10&key=NJDH&numresults=1&start=13 http://njdigitalhighway.org/search/results.php?q1=seabrook+memoir&orderby=relevance&ppage=10&key=NJDH&numresults=1&start=30 and more!
