About this map

McSherrystown and its surrounding rural communities are captured in this 2010 survey of south-central Pennsylvania. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the South Branch Conewago Creek and its many tributaries, including Plum Creek and Alloway Creek. Small settlements and historic crossroads like Irishtown, Edgegrove, and Brushtown are linked by a dense network of country lanes, many named for local families and early industry, such as Fleshman Mill Rd and Kohler School Rd.

The presence of Berlin Junction and the local Hanover Airport underscores the region's long-standing role as a transportation corridor. To the northeast, the terrain rises toward Pigeon Hill, while the evocative Mount Misery overlooks the creek valley. This map provides a detailed view of the transition between the developed borough of New Oxford and the productive agricultural lands and farmsteads that have sustained Adams County for generations.
