1966 Map of Barrville

About this map

Barrville sits at the foot of Stone Mountain, where the farmland of Kishacoquillas Valley meets the dense timber of Rothrock State Forest. This mid-century landscape is defined by its deep ridges and narrow water gaps, including Stone Gap and Alexander Gap, which dictated the early roads and settlement patterns of central Pennsylvania. The map illustrates a rural economy transitioning toward recreation and aviation, featuring the Mifflin County Airport and the Penn Roosevelt Picnic Area alongside established local institutions like the Barrville Sch.
