1952 Map of Duncannon

About this map

The Juniata River and Susquehanna River converge at the heart of this landscape, defining the industrial and transport history of Duncannon. By the mid-20th century, the Juniata Canal remained as a trace of earlier commerce, bypassed by the heavy tracks of the Penn Central railroad and the William Penn Highway. The town itself is a dense node of activity, featuring the Highland Cemetery, an Athletic field, and the Penn-Two Consolidated School.
