1956 Map of Terre Hill
USGS Topo · Published 1976About this map
Muddy Creek and the Conestoga River anchor this mid-century view of Lancaster County, where the topography of Adamstown Ridge and Turkey Hill dictates the layout of long-established farming communities. The map captures a moment of infrastructure change, as the Pennsylvania Turnpike cuts through the townships of East Cocalico and Brecknock. The density of local institutions, including the Bible Conference Ch and numerous rural schools like Wide Hollow Sch and Chestnut Sch, reflects the closely knit social fabric of the Pennsylvania Dutch country during this period.
