1944 Map of Greencastle

About this map

Greencastle anchors this mid-century survey of Franklin County, showing a landscape defined by traditional agrarian settlements and the modern expansion of the interstate system. The area north of the Maryland border features a network of small communities including Shady Grove, Marion, and Kauffman, many tied to the corridor of the Penn Central railroad. Significant local infrastructure is evident through the Greendale Reservoir and the winding course of Conococheague Creek.
