2023 Map of Buckingham

About this map

Neshaminy Creek and its many tributaries, including Robin Run and Lahaska Creek, define this area of Bucks County. The landscape is marked by a series of long-standing rural communities such as Holicong, Furlong, and Lahaska, centered around historic religious sites. One notable cultural landmark is the Gilead African Methodist Episcopal Church Cem, located near the southern slope of Buckingham Mountain. The map also captures the modern aviation presence at Doylestown Airport and the smaller Slack Airport near Forest Grove. This area reflects the transition from isolated agricultural hamlets to a more interconnected suburban network, while maintaining distinct named features like Little Italy and Bridge Valley. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the numerous burial grounds, such as the Plumstead Friends Meeting Cem and the Mechanicsville Cem, which have anchored these communities for generations.
