1953 Map of Urbana

USGS Topo · Published 1987

About this map

Urbana sits at the heart of this landscape, where early 1950s rural life is preserved in detail along the border of Frederick and Montgomery counties. The map traces a network of farm-to-market routes and small settlements like Ijamsville and Hyattstown, many of which developed around the topography of Bennett Creek and Bush Creek. Transportation history is evident in the path of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor cutting through the northern section near Monrovia.
