2010 Map of Bellwood

About this map

The Little Juniata River flows through a landscape defined by industrial legacy and growing residential settlements in this 2010 survey of Blair County. The community of Bellwood is central to the area, flanked by smaller hamlets such as Roots, Pinecroft, and Reightown. Evidence of the region’s mineral history remains at the Sinking Valley Lead Zinc Mines in the eastern hills, while the Celestine Locality provides a specific point of interest for geological researchers. Water management is a significant feature of the terrain, with several impoundments including the Pottsgrove Reservoir, Kettle Reservoir, and the Brush Mountain Dam regulating the local creeks. Genealogists will find several burial grounds documented, including the Logan Valley Cemetery, Antis Cemetery, and Rose Hill Cemetery, providing a spatial record of the area’s established families and long-standing communities.
