1955 Map of Conestoga

About this map

Millersville and its State Teachers College anchor the northwestern corner of this landscape, where the Conestoga River winds toward the Susquehanna River. The terrain is defined by the deep valleys of the Pequea Creek and its many tributaries, including Silver Mine Run and Climbers Run, which carve through the townships of Pequea and Martic. The settlement pattern follows the high ground between these watercourses, connected by routes like Long Lane.
