About this map

Fleetwood sits at the heart of this landscape, surrounded by a dense network of Pennsylvania Dutch country roads and multi-generational family burial grounds. The map reveals a high concentration of ancestral sites such as the Rothermel Burial Ground, Kirby Burial Ground, and the Hoch Family Cem, reflecting centuries of deep-rooted settlement in Maxatawny and Oley Townships. To the south, the industrial heritage of the region is anchored by Oley Furnace near Furnace Hill, while the village of Pricetown serves as a crossroads for religious life with the Saint Johns / Pricetown Cem and the Pricetown Church of the Brethren Cem.

Water plays a critical role in the topography, with Moselem Cr and Willow Cr cutting through the farmland toward the Fleetwood Reservoir. Small hamlets like Breezy Corner, Moselem Springs, and Basket are linked by historic routes like Kutztown Rd, tracing the early transit corridors of Berks County. This survey provides a precise view of the rural-industrial mix, from the Fleetwood Community Pool in the town center to the outlier burial grounds like the Barto Burial Ground and Hunter Burial Grounds.
