1952 Map of Buckeystown

About this map

The Monocacy River flows through this 1952 revised landscape, where mid-century Maryland farming communities align with the historic path of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. Industry and transit define the corridor from Frederick Junction south through Lime Kiln and Buckeystown, where local Brick Kilns are noted near the tracks. This era shows the continued prominence of the C & O Canal along the Potomac River at the map's southern edge, serving as a landmark boundary near Nolands Island.
