1944 Map of Price

About this map

Pennsylvania railroad tracks cut a diagonal path through the northern landscape of this mid-century survey, passing through the small community of Price. The map reveals a rural agricultural society organized into numbered districts like Church Hill No 2 and Ruthsburg No 6, where life centered around local hubs such as Bethany Church and Roseville Church. The terrain is defined by a network of small waterways, including Granny Finley Branch and German Branch, which are crossed by named structures like Clucktown Bridge. To the south, the St Gertrude Academy and the County Home represent significant institutional landmarks of the era. The presence of numerous designated roads, such as White Marsh Rd and Ruthsburg Road, indicates a well-established connection between the smaller hamlets of Hayden, Roe, and Hope.
