2011 Map of Fawn Grove

About this map

Fawn Grove serves as the focal point for this borderland study, where the rolling hills of York County meet the Maryland state line. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Deer Creek and its many tributaries, including Little Deer Creek and Falling Branch. This 2011 survey documents a transition from traditional agricultural settlements like Harkins and Constitution to modern residential enclaves such as Whispering Woods and Coventry Meadows. Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the landscape, from Heaps Cemetery near the border to the Holy Cross Cemetery further south. The area's character is shaped by landmarks like Kilgores Rocks and the Street Post Office, while the inclusion of the Little Deer Creek Watershed Site Number 1 Dam highlights modern land management alongside established dairy farms and nurseries like Grier Nursery Farms.
