About this map

Evans City serves as the focal point of this Pennsylvania landscape, where the waters of Breakneck Creek and Connoquenessing Creek converge. The area’s unique heritage is visible in the density of religious and communal burial grounds, including the Harmonist Society Cem near Harmony and the German Lutheran Cem in Middle Lancaster. These sites reflect the early 19th-century settlement patterns of the Harmony Society and subsequent German immigrants who shaped the region's agricultural and social character.

Transport and utility infrastructure mark the modern era, from the Fisher Family Farms Airport in the north to Evansburg Reservoir Number Two in the south. The map traces historical transit points such as Harmony Junction, Buhls Station, and Watters, which once linked these valley communities. Small hamlets like Eidenau and Wahlville remain interspersed among the winding runs and creeks that define the local topography.
