About this map

Oley Furnace stands as a focal point in this Berks County landscape, marking the historic industrial activity along the banks of Furnace Creek. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent elevations, including Furnace Hill, Sheep Hill, and Andstadt Hill, which overlook a network of small agricultural and residential settlements. The borough of Fleetwood serves as the central hub, surrounded by smaller communities such as Walnuttown, Pricetown, and Kempville.

Water management is evident through various features like the Fleetwood Reservoir and several historic industrial remnants including the Weinberger Mill Dam and Peters Spring Run Dam. For genealogists, the map is particularly rich in cemetery locations, documenting local heritage at sites such as Beckers Saint Peters Church Cemetery, Salem Shalters Cemetery, and Friedens Cemetery. The road network and placement of Lyons Station reflect the long-standing transportation corridors connecting these rural Pennsylvania townships.
