2018 Map of Summer Hill

About this map

Summer Hill and Atlas anchor this portion of Pike County, where the agricultural landscape is defined by a dense network of country roads and small, family-named burial grounds. The terrain transitions from the upland heights of Hoskins Hill down toward the bottomlands near Spatterdock Lake and The Snu. This area is particularly rich for genealogical research, as it preserves the locations of numerous historic cemeteries such as Taylor- Martin Cem, Prairie Mound Cem, and Bald Bluff Cem, which often represent the earliest pioneers of settlements like Taylor and New Hartford. Waterways such as Dutch Cr and Ambrosia Cr wind through the township divisions of t5s r5w and t6s r4w, illustrating the drainage patterns that influenced the placement of early farmsteads and rural routes like Jim Town Hollow Rd.
