About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River carves through the coal-rich highlands of Cambria and Indiana Counties during the early 1960s, revealing a landscape deeply defined by the extraction economy. The neighboring boroughs of Barnesboro and Spangler serve as the primary population hubs, surrounded by numerous smaller industrial settlements like Emeigh, Garmantown, and Marsteller. Significant infrastructure for the mining workforce is evident, including the Miners Hospital and the Northern Cambria High School.
