1998 Map of Bellefonte

About this map

Bellefonte serves as the focal point of this late-century survey, revealing the dense urban core and its industrial periphery at the confluence of Spring Creek and Logan Branch. The landscape is dominated by the massive ridge of Bald Eagle Mountain, which separates the main valley from the smaller settlements of Milesburg and Wingate. The map documents a complex mix of civic infrastructure and industry, including the Rockview State Correctional Institution and numerous extractive sites labeled as Quarry and Strip Mine. Genealogists and local historians can locate several important burial grounds, such as Union Cem and Trcziyulny Cem, alongside rural landmarks like the Advent Ch. The presence of an Old Railroad Grade and Run Railroad Grade illustrates the evolution of transport in Centre County, while isolated spots like Fishermans Paradise highlight the area's recreational geography.
