Starvation Island
Starvation Island (also known as Mohawk Island) on the Navesink River in Rumson, New Jersey was a small (approximately 2.5 acres (1.0 ha)) island located between Sea Bright and Barley Point. Early in the 20th century, it was inhabited by Red Bank oysterman George Frick and fisherman Thomas Schwindt, and then other families began to build bungalows.
