About this map

Bel Air serves as the central hub of this Harford County landscape, surrounded by an expanding network of suburban developments like Fountain Green Heights, Silver Spring Heights, and Colonial Acres. The map reveals a transition from the denser street grids of the town center, characterized by S Main St and E Pennsylvania Ave, toward the more rural northern reaches of Chestnut Hill and Kalmia.

Genealogists will find a wealth of location data among the numerous country churches and burial grounds, such as Deer Creek United Methodist Cem and the Trappe Missionary Baptist Cem. The area's agricultural and early industrial roots are still visible through features like Michaels Mill Dam on Thomas Run, while the aviation history of the region is marked by Forest Hill Airport and Moxley's Airport. The complex drainage of Bynum Run and Winters Run defines the undulating topography that has shaped the county's growth.
