About this map

Ephrata and New Holland anchor this detailed landscape of Lancaster County just as the modern highway system was taking shape. The map illustrates a dense network of rural infrastructure, from the early construction of the Pennsylvania Turnpike to the established Reading and Columbia Division rail line. This era reflects the peak of the community-centered rural school system, with numerous small buildings such as Fetter School, Clay School, and Metzler School serving localized districts before mid-century consolidation.
