1952 Map of Buckeystown

About this map

The Monocacy River carves a central path through this Frederick County landscape, where the agricultural traditions of Carrollton Manor meet the industrial and transport arteries of the mid-20th century. The Baltimore and Ohio railroad serves as a primary axis, connecting rural hubs like Adamstown and Buckeystown Station. Notable for its diverse land use, the area contains specialized sites such as the Fish Hatchery at Lilypons and the Brick Kilns near Buckeystown. In the southern reaches, the distinctive rise of Sugar Loaf Mtn stands near the border of Frederick Co Montgomery Co. This 1952 revision captures the valley’s community life through numerous rural landmarks, including St Matthews Ch, Forest Grove Ch, and the Doubs Sch, reflecting a period when small-scale milling and local schoolhouses remained integral to the countryside's identity.
