2010 Map of Glen Rock

About this map

Shrewsbury and the surrounding boroughs of southern York County occupy a terrain defined by the winding paths of the South Branch Codorus Creek and the East Branch Codorus Creek. The landscape is a network of small, closely linked settlements including Glen Rock, Railroad, and Loganville, connected by historical roads such as the Susquehanna Trl S. This area is particularly rich in family-named landmarks and historical sites, featuring numerous burial grounds like Ness Cemetery, Seitz Cemetery, and the Chestnut Hill Cemetery in Glen Rock Valley. The map details the transition from rural valleys like Rehmeyer Hollow to the more structured community layouts of Centerville and Hametown. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local institutions, from Fissels Church to the Shrewsbury Station, which illustrates the historical reliance on rail and stream corridors for the region's development.
