2016 Map of Saxonburg

About this map

Saxonburg anchors the southern portion of this Butler County landscape, characterized by its traditional borough layout and the waters of Lake Saxony. The map documents a deeply rooted rural infrastructure of family and parish landmarks, with numerous sacred sites including Saint Michael Cem, Saint Marys Cem, and B'nai Abraham Cem dotting the hillsides between small settlements like Hannahstown and Jefferson Center. The drainage patterns of Thorn Cr and Little Buffalo Run define the varied topography, influencing the placement of early industry at sites like Frazier Mill. From the crossroads at Herman to the residential pockets of Meadowood and Vogleyville, the map provides a look at the enduring community names and rural roads that have connected these Pennsylvania uplands for generations.
