About this map

Opequon Creek and Bullskin Run define the agricultural landscape of this Jefferson County area, where small settlements and family farms are connected by a web of historic pikes and county routes. The village of Middleway sits central to the map, surrounded by named farm springs such as Schlack Farm Spring and Capper Farm Spring, which provided essential water sources for livestock and early industry.

Genealogical interest is particularly high near Harewood, where the Washington Burial Ground reflects the deep historical roots of the region. The landscape transition between Leetown and Summit Point is marked by numerous springs, including Claymont Springs and the White House Spring, highlighting the reliance on natural hydrology in this limestone-rich terrain. Cemeteries like Johnsontown Cem and Fairview Cem are preserved among the rolling fields and modern developments of Jefferson Village.
