About this map

Palmyra and Annville anchor this 1940s landscape, serving as the primary hubs along the Reading railroad line. The settlement pattern reveals a series of compact villages such as Campbelltown, Palmdale, and Bellegrove, connected by a dense network of local roads and schools. Rural education is particularly prominent, with numerous one-room schoolhouses like Hemperly School, Laurel Grove School, and Meyersville School serving the surrounding farmsteads.
