2019 Map of Stewartstown

About this map

York County's agricultural and milling heritage remains visible across this 2019 landscape, where numerous historic mill sites dot the winding waterways. Local industry once thrived at Sechrist Mill on the N Br Muddy Cr and farther south at Bacon Mill along Rambo Run. The settlement pattern in this area is characterized by small, dispersed villages like Brogueville, Felton, and Winterstown that grew around early crossroads and water power sites. Genealogists can locate several burial grounds including Old Roundhill Cem and Shaffer Cem, while the town of Stewartstown serves as a primary hub in the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. The terrain is defined by the drainage basins of Leibs Cr and Ebaughs Cr, illustrating the relationship between the rolling hills of southern Pennsylvania and the stream networks that shaped early commerce.
