A Word About Roads

Through history the names and destinations of roads have changed. On the historical maps,the road names that we give are sometimes best guess.

The road names given in census records are more general areas than actual names. You'll find east of Falls Rd, near Falls Rd, Parkton-Beckleysville which could mean the area of Parkton Rd and Beckleysville Rd.

For an example, what is now Brickstore road in the 5th district of Baltimore County was once Manchester Rd. Roads like Foreston Rd changed in origination and destination. Parts of it are covered by the Pretty Boy Reservoir.

Some roads like Shamburger Mill Rd or also possibly named Parkton Rd, don't even exist today. If you come up with a better guess or have information on any of the road names, feel free to drop us a line.
