About this map

The Aberdeen Proving Ground Military Reservation dominates this Harford County landscape shortly after World War II, illustrating the heavy military footprint on the western shore of the Chesapeake Bay. The map captures the transition between civilian farm life and federal expansion, with established local landmarks like Spesutie Church and the Perryman School positioned near the sprawling military complex. To the south, the Poverty Island Area and Old Baltimore sit along the Bush River, showing a coastline defined by intricate inlets like Romney Creek and Sod Run.
