1953 Map of Mars

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Mars serves as a primary hub within this 1953 survey, which captures the southern Butler and northern Allegheny County borderlands as suburban development began to reach these rural townships. The landscape is defined by a dense network of Oil Wells scattered across the hills, signaling the region’s long-standing petroleum industry. Significant social and institutional footprints are visible at the Thorn Hill Industrial School and various youth camps like Epworth Woods Camp and Camp Trees, which utilized the wooded terrain of Marshall and Pine townships.
