1972 Map of Armenia

About this map

Armenia and Lowrys serve as the primary focal points of this rural landscape spanning the border of Chester and York Counties. The area is defined by a dense network of country churches and family burial grounds, including Old Providence Ch Cem and Mt Pleasant Ch Cem, which anchor the local community history. Educational infrastructure is represented by the North Chester Sch, situated amidst a terrain heavily dissected by watercourses like Turkey Creek and Swayhole Creek. The presence of a Sandpit and Quarry suggests localized resource extraction within the predominantly agricultural setting. The map reveals a transition from these higher elevations, such as Bulls Hill, down toward the various branches and forks that feed into the Sandy River, providing a clear view of the settlement patterns and road networks as they existed in the early 1970s.
