1946 Map of Antrim

About this map

Pine Creek Gorge dominates this mid-century landscape, carving a deep path through the highlands of Tioga County. The map reveals a post-war rural economy transitioning from early industrial roots, as evidenced by the convergence of the Baltimore and Ohio and New York Central railroads. While Wellsboro serves as the regional hub in the north, smaller settlements like Antrim and Morris remain vital centers linked by the Roosevelt Highway. Local genealogists will find significant value in the distribution of family-named landmarks and rural institutions, including the Sherman Sch, the Cedar Run Ch, and numerous remote burial grounds such as Butler Cem and Mt Pleasant Cem. The terrain is punctuated by significant summits like Mount Tom and Texas Mtn, illustrating the steep relief of the Pennsylvania Wilds before the era of modern development.
