2023 Map of Allensville
USGS Topo · Published 2023About this map
Allensville and the surrounding Big Valley showcase a landscape deeply defined by its religious heritage and agricultural geography. This area of Mifflin County, nestled between the imposing heights of Jacks Mountain and Stone Mountain, is characterized by a high density of denominational burying grounds, including the Allensville Mennonite and Amish Cem and the West Kishacoquillas Presbyterian Cem. The orientation of settlements like Menno and Rockville follows the limestone-rich floor of the Kishacoquillas Valley, where numerous springs and runs, such as Soft Run and Saddler Creek, provided essential water for the farmsteads. The northern portion of the map transitions into the densely forested slopes of the Rothrock State Forest, where the terrain rises toward Garret Knob and Murphy Hollow, contrasting the agrarian valley with the wooded ridges that historically isolated these distinct valley communities.
