Welsh Mountain anchors the center of this landscape where the borders of Berks, Lancaster, and Chester counties converge during the early twentieth century. This region is characterized by a dense network of rural settlements and family-named locales, including Hummels Store, Scarlets Mill, and Geigers Mills. The industrial and social infrastructure of the era is evident in the numerous educational and religious sites such as Silver Hill School, Maxwell School, and the Stone Church.
