1964 Map of West Middletown

Infrastructure for transportation and water management is prominent, featuring the Baltimore and Ohio rail line and a notable Covered Bridge crossing Buffalo Creek. The recent development of Dutch Fork Lake and its Spillway suggests a mid-century shift in land use, while small hamlets like Acheson, Budaville, and Taylorstown preserve the rural character of the era. The extensive State Game Lands No 232 occupies a significant portion of the western terrain, providing a look at conservation during this period.
