1947 Map of Halifax

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

The Susquehanna River dominates this mid-century landscape, carving a wide path through the ridge-and-valley terrain of Dauphin County. Large mid-river landforms like Clempson Island and Haldeman Island sit across from the settlement of Halifax, where the local road network converges. To the south, the massive parallel ridges of Peters Mountain, Third Mountain, and Second Mountain create a formidable geographic barrier, with the Peters Mountain Airway Beacon perched atop the highest crest to guide mid-century aviators.
