1954 Map of Asaph

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Hessel Gesser Millstone stands as a notable landmark on the slopes of Middle Ridge, anchoring a landscape defined by deep Pennsylvania hollows and high summits. This mid-century survey captures the settlement at Asaph and the nearby Ansonia Sta along Marsh Creek, where the B & O railroad and the Roosevelt Highway parallel the waterway. The terrain is marked by a sophisticated network of fire lookouts, including the Goodall Fire Tower and Fire Tower Baldwin, situated to monitor the dense timberlands of the Shippen and Chatham areas. Diverse features such as Black Ash Swamp and Big Rocks contrast with the cultivated clearings near Little Marsh. The drainage patterns, including the numerous branches of Asaph Run and Straight Run, illustrate the complex topography that historically directed the paths of early roads and timber trails like the Log Slide Trail.
