1960 Map of Amsterdam

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Amsterdam stands as a central settlement in the upper reaches of the Yellow Creek valley, where the Penn Central railroad cuts through the broken hills of Loudon and Springfield townships. This 1960 survey highlights a landscape heavily shaped by industrial activity, with extensive Strip Mines and several smaller Strip Mine operations flanking the ridges around Apex and Germano. The presence of numerous family and rural burial grounds, such as Simmons Ridge Cem, Mizer Cem, and Buffalo Hill Cem, provides a detailed record for genealogists tracking local lineages in this corner of Jefferson, Carroll, and Harrison Counties.
