About this map

Marsh Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Marsh Creek and Muddy Run, carve through the rolling farmland and orchards of western Adams County. This landscape is deeply connected to the 1863 conflict, as seen in the presence of Herr Ridge and the western edge of Gettysburg National Military Park. Historic structures like the Black Horse Tavern and several rural schoolhouses, such as Liberty Hall Sch and McCurdy Sch, speak to the deep-rooted settlement patterns of Highland and Liberty townships.
