1953 Map of Newark West

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

The Mason and Dixon Line serves as a prominent horizontal boundary across this 1953 survey, marking the intersection of Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Delaware. The expanding campus of the University of Delaware dominates the eastern edge at Newark, while the surrounding countryside is dotted with small rural crossroads like McClellandville and Strickersville. Industrial and transit corridors are well-defined, with the Baltimore and Ohio and Pennsylvania railroads cutting through the landscape to support local hubs like Elk Mills and Singerly.

Genealogists will find a wealth of burial grounds and meeting houses, including the London Tract Ch Cem and Welsh Tract Ch Cem. These religious sites, alongside rural schools such as the West Bank Sch and Kenmore Sch, reflect the established social fabric of Cecil County and neighboring New Castle County during the early post-war era. Significant landmarks like the Fair Hill Race Track and Lovett Airport further illustrate the area's diverse recreational and logistical activity.
