About this map

Georgetown serves as the central hub of this inland Sussex County landscape, where the Pennsylvania RR cuts through a dense network of crossroads and agricultural infrastructure. The map reveals a highly decentralized rural society during the 1940s, marked by an exceptional number of small schoolhouses and family-named junctions such as McDonalds Crossroads, Hitchens Crossroads, and Gumboro Crossroads. These points of interest, alongside the County Farm and Morris Mill, suggest a landscape defined by local community centers rather than major urban development.
