1953 Map of Littlestown

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Littlestown anchors the northern portion of this landscape, situated just above the historic Mason and Dixon Line that separates Pennsylvania from Maryland. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Big Pipe Creek and Silver Run, which supported a localized milling economy evidenced by landmarks like Menges Mill, Arters Mill, and Wolfs Mill. This mid-century survey reflects the rural character of the Adams and Carroll County border, where small settlements such as Georgetown, Kingsdale, and Cherrytown are connected by the Pennsylvania railroad line.
