1944 Map of Mc Sherrystown

USGS Topo · Published 1960

About this map

New Oxford and McSherrystown anchor a landscape defined by small-scale agriculture and an intricate network of local country schools during the mid-1940s. The topography reveals a transition from the agricultural lowlands of Mount Pleasant to the rising terrain of Pigeon Hill. The presence of numerous one-room schoolhouses, such as Kirkpatrick Sch and Locust Grove Sch, reflects a rural educational structure that was beginning to centralize, while landmark institutions like St Joseph Academy and the historic Conewago Chapel served as significant regional anchors.
