2016 Map of Bentley Creek

About this map

Lake Ondawa and the nearby settlement of Big Pond define the southern landscape of this 2016 survey, where the rolling hills of Bradford County meet a network of historic thoroughfares. The Berwick Tpke serves as a central artery, connecting the small communities of Bentley Creek, Middletown, and Ridgebury. This area is particularly dense with small family and community burial grounds, including the Owen Cem, Crandal Cem, and Hanlon Hill Cem, providing a clear record of local settlement patterns and genealogy. The terrain is marked by prominent ridges such as Draper Ridge and Green Mtn Burnham Hill, which separate numerous narrow valleys and watercourses like Justice Run and Terwilliger Cr. Farther north, the landscape rises toward E Canfield Mtn, while landmarks such as Mormon Hill and the Our Lady of Perpetual Help Cem reflect the social and religious history of the township.
