1956 Map of Fawn Grove

About this map

The Pennsylvania Maryland state line bisects this 1956 mid-century survey, where rural communities like Fawn Grove and Constitution sit atop a network of winding roads. The landscape is defined by the deep valleys of Deer Creek and Falling Branch, which cut through the southern portion of the quadrangle near Rocks State Park. The map reveals a high density of local landmarks essential for genealogical research, including St Pauls Ch, Holy Cross Ch, and cemeteries such as Fellowship Cem and Heaps Cem. The presence of Kennard-Dale High Sch and North Harford High Sch highlights the educational centers serving these border communities during a period of post-war stability. Distinctive geological features like Kilgores Rocks and the prominent Rock Ridge dominate the lower terrain, offering a clear view of the area's natural topography before modern development.
