About this map

Stewartstown and the surrounding borderlands of York, Baltimore, and Harford Counties are defined by a network of winding creeks and small crossroads settlements. This modern survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the region, where legacy industrial and community sites like Amos Mill and Ivory Mill line the banks of Deer Creek. The terrain is deeply carved by water, featuring numerous named tributaries such as Plumtree Br, Ebaughs Cr, and Jackson Br.

Genealogists can trace local roots through several religious and burial landmarks, including the McKendree Methodist Episcopal Church Cem near Shawsville Acres and the Hopewell Cem located just south of the Pennsylvania-Maryland state line. The map also identifies the Little Deer Cr Reservoir Site, indicating ongoing regional water management efforts amidst a landscape of named family lands and small hamlets like Shane, Carea, and Drybranch.
