1955 Map of Clayton

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Clayton serves as the focal point of this mid-century survey, situated at the junction of the Pennsylvania railroad line and surrounded by the agricultural landscapes of northern Delaware. The transition from New Castle County to Kent County is marked by a network of drainage ditches and slow-moving waterways like Providence Creek and Blackbird Creek. This area is characterized by numerous small crossroads settlements, many named for local families, including Blodgetts Corners, Reynolds Corners, and Thomas Corners, which served as local gathering points for the surrounding farmsteads.
