1902 Map of Parkton
USGS Topo · Published 1907About this map
The Northern Central Railway carves a critical path through the Maryland and Pennsylvania borderlands, following the winding course of Gunpowder Falls. This 1900 survey captures a region of tight-knit agricultural and rail-oriented settlements, where the railway connects hubs like Parkton and Whitehall to the broader corridor. The map highlights the transition from Baltimore County into York County, specifically documenting the namesake Maryland Line settlement and the busy transit routes of the York Pike and Old York Road. Away from the rail line, the landscape is defined by a dense network of runs and branches, such as Little Gunpowder Falls and Beetree Run, which supported a series of small villages and manor lands. Places like Bacon Hall, Summit Grove, and the uniquely named Spook Hill provide a window into the local nomenclature and land ownership of the early twentieth century.
