1947 Map of Birdsboro
USGS Topo · Published 1969About this map
The Schuylkill River corridor in Berks County anchors this postwar portrait of Pennsylvania’s industrial and agricultural heartland. Birdsboro stands as the primary hub at the southern edge, where the Reading and Penn Central railroads track alongside the river and the remnants of the old canal system. The landscape north of the river transitions into a rolling quilt of family-named ridges and small settlements, including the Daniel Boone Homestead near Baumstown.
