1999 Map of Oxford
USGS Topo · Published 2001About this map
Lincoln University anchors this portion of southern Chester County, sitting near the crossroads of Baltimore Pike and the West Branch McDonald Run. This late 20th-century landscape is defined by its educational and religious heritage, as seen in the density of local schoolhouses such as Oak Grove Sch, Buena Vista Sch, and Elkview Sch. The region shows a transition from agricultural foundations to more modern infrastructure, including a Landing Strip near New London and a Radio Tower in Lower Oxford. Local genealogy is well-represented through historic grounds like Faggs Manor Cem and Beulah Cem. The drainage patterns of Elk Creek and Rattlesnake Run illustrate the rolling topography that directed the early settlement of villages like Russellville, Edenton, and Hayesville along established ridges and watercourses.
