USGS Topo · Published 1951About this map
Bake Oven Knob and Lehigh Furnace anchor the northern ridge of this Pennsylvania landscape, where the Lehigh Valley's industrial and agricultural heritage is clearly etched. The map reveals a dense network of early settlements such as Slatedale, Emerald, and Fogelsville, connected by the vital routes of the Reading RR and Lehigh Valley RR. The rural character is punctuated by numerous country schools like Mantz Sch and Apple Sch, alongside historic congregational hubs including Friedens Ch and Weisenberg Ch.
