1995 Map of Hershey

About this map

Swatara Creek and the historic path of the Union Canal anchor this landscape, reflecting the long-standing water-based infrastructure that preceded the region's industrial growth. By the late 1990s, the area demonstrates a dense layering of institutional and community life, from the sprawling Hershey Medical Center and the State Police Academy to several family-named landmarks like Fishburns Cem. The map reveals the intricate development of Hershey and Hummelstown, where modern features like the Stadium and Hershey Museum sit alongside natural wonders such as Indian Echo Caverns. Throughout East Hanover and South Hanover, numerous country churches like Shells Ch and Calvary Ch provide clear touchpoints for genealogists tracing the established settlements of Sand Beach, Union Deposit, and Shellsville.
