About this map

Augusta and Springfield anchor this 1921 topography of Hampshire County, where the Cacapon River and South Branch Potomac River carve through a landscape of sharp ridges and deep hollows. The settlement pattern is defined by a dense network of country schools and rural churches, including Shiloh School, Ebenezer Church, and Salem Church, reflecting a decentralized agricultural community at the start of the twentieth century. Industrial and transit activity centers on the Baltimore and Ohio RR near Wappocomo and the historic Northwestern Turnpike crossing through the southern half of the quadrangle.
