1960 Map of Perkiomenville

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Perkiomen Creek and its many tributaries, including Unami Creek and Swamp Creek, define the agricultural and wooded landscape of this Montgomery County region. By 1960, the area maintained a dense network of historic rural settlements like Perkiomenville, Sumneytown, and Woxall. The presence of numerous old houses of worship, such as Old Goshenhoppen Ch and Friedens Union Ch, alongside several family and community burial grounds like Tabor Cem and Harley Cem, provides significant detail for genealogical research. The Reading railroad serves the upper portion of the map, passing through McLeans Sta, while the newer Pennsylvania Turnpike Northeast Extension cuts through the eastern townships. Significant recreational landmarks are also evident, from Upper Perkiomen Valley County Park to the Delmont Boy Scout Camp, reflecting the area's role in local conservation and youth organizations.
