1947 Map of Ayers Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Ayers Hill and the surrounding high plateaus of Potter County are defined by a dense network of timber-era trails and narrow stream hollows in this mid-century survey. The landscape reflects a transition from early upland settlement to recreational use, anchored by the Coudersport Country Club in the north and state-managed lands to the south. Genealogists will find several family-named burial grounds, including Ayers Hill Cem, Jackson Cem, Reed Cem, and the remote Anton Cem near Fanton Hollow. The drainage patterns of the West Branch Pine Creek and Sinnemahoning Creek illustrate the geographical divide of the region, while named routes like the Jersey Shore Turnpike and White Birch Trail trace the historic movement of people through these steep valleys. Small settlements like Jenkins Hill and Bone appear alongside specialized landmarks such as Prouty Place Camp and Little Cherry Springs Park, providing a detailed look at rural Pennsylvania life before further modern development.
