2013 Map of Andover

About this map

Andover serves as the central hub of this Allegany County landscape, where the waters of Dyke Cr and Railroad Brook meet. The settlement pattern is defined by a series of narrow valleys and prominent heights, such as Pingry Hill and Jericho Hill, which channel the local road network. Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites concentrated near the village and along the creek beds, including Hillside Cem, Saint Johns Cem, and Gate of Heaven Cem. To the west, the smaller community of Elm Valley sits near Dyke Cem, illustrating the early 21st-century rural character of the region. The map also documents agricultural landmarks like Sunny Cove Farm and Kent Farms, alongside several distinct geographic hollows such as Shovel Hollow and Quig Hollow that mark the southern terrain.
