1959 Map of Aughwick

About this map

The Juniata River winds through the northern reaches of this central Pennsylvania landscape, where the settlements of Kistler and Allenport sit across from one another near the industrial Quarry. The terrain is defined by the steep, parallel ridges of Tuscarora Mountain and Blacklog Mountain, which shelter the long, narrow agricultural pockets of Germany Valley and Shade Valley. Within these valleys, historical land use is marked by a network of small family and community burial grounds, such as Shope Cem and Germany Valley Cem.
