1891 Map of Doylestown

About this map

The Delaware River defines the eastern boundary of this survey, winding past several river islands including Marshals Island and Ridges I. as it flows toward Lumberville. This late 19th-century landscape is marked by the rugged heights of Haycock Mountain in the north and the distinct ridge of Buckingham Mountain to the south. Between these peaks, a dense network of post offices and settlements such as Plumsteadville, Ottsville, and Bedminsterville are connected by early transportation routes, including the Electric Railroad and the Reading Railroad.
