1954 Map of Hookstown

About this map

Hookstown and the southern banks of the Ohio River anchor this mid-century portrait of Beaver County. The landscape is defined by the steep valleys of Mill Creek and Service Creek, where small rural communities like Shippingport, McCleary, and Mechanicsburg are connected by winding country roads. To the south, the sprawling grounds of Raccoon Creek State Park encompass the State Park Headquarters, a Boathouse, and the waters of Traverse Creek.
