About this map

Joanna Furnace stands as a prominent landmark in this 2016 survey, reflecting the industrial heritage of the Berks and Lancaster county borderlands. The landscape is characterized by a dense concentration of faith-based burial grounds and settlements that speak to the area's deep religious and genealogical history. From Churchtown in the south to Alleghenyville in the north, the map meticulously records various denominational sites including the Alleghenyville Mennonite Cem, Robeson Monthly Meeting Cem, and Saint Thomas Episcopal Church Cem.

Watercourses like the Conestoga River and its branches, including the W Br Conestoga River and Little Conestoga, drain the varied terrain between Welsh Mtn and Turkey Hill. The intersection of modern infrastructure and traditional communities is evident near Morgantown, where major highways skirt established locales such as Plowville and Beckersville, while recreational spots like Maple Grove Park and Camp Adahi Swimming Pool provide glimpses into local social life.
