About this map

Prettyboy Reservoir and the winding course of Gunpowder Falls anchor this mid-century survey of northern Baltimore County. The landscape reflects a transition from rural agricultural land to a more connected suburban corridor, notably marked by the introduction of purple-revision highway interchanges and residential expansion near Hereford. While modern transit begins to overlay the terrain, the map preserves the older structural footprint of the region, including numerous small settlements like Yeoho, Belfast, and Sparks. For local historians and genealogists, the map is a primary resource for locating country churches and family-named landmarks, ranging from Mt Carmel Ch in the west to Immanuel Ch near Glencoe. The inclusion of the Penn Central rail line, with stops at Sparks Sta and Glencoe Sta, illustrates the persistent importance of the railroad for these outlying Maryland communities.
