That reference I made to the New Jersey Meadowlands was perhaps not
really a "cordaroy" road, on the maps it was referred to as the "Old
Plank Road" which had a different construction, actually planks joined
at the outside by "stringers" I would call them I guess. There is a
story about a giant "Paul Bunyanesque" woman, "Swamp Angel" who
"lifted" a wagon "train" over the swamps it had found itself bogged
down in. I wonder if the "Swamp Angel" was someone with an idea for a
"plank" road.
