1952 Map of Greenfield

About this map

Greenfield anchors this mid-century portrait of Hancock County, showing a landscape defined by the intersection of major rail corridors and an extensive drainage network. The Pennsylvania and New York Central railroads cut through the terrain, supporting local commerce in established settlements like Mohawk, Maxwell, and Philadelphia. Outside the residential grids, the land is etched with numerous named agricultural waterways, including Henry Ditch and Leary-Weber Ditch, which channel water toward the larger flows of Sugar Creek and Brandywine Creek.
