1955 Map of Harbeson

About this map

Harbeson and the agricultural lands of Sussex County are defined by an intricate network of drainage ditches and branches that supported the region's mid-century farming and milling economy. This landscape is anchored by rural hubs like Stockley and Springfield Crossroads, where life revolved around local landmarks like Bethesda Ch and St John Ch. The Delaware Coast Line and Conrail tracks slice through the terrain, connecting rail points like Broadkill Sta and Saulsbury Switch to the wider coastal markets.
