2019 Map of Boswell
USGS Topo · Published 2019About this map
The Somerset County coal and agricultural lands center around Boswell, where a dense grid of streets like Stonycreek St and Main St speaks to its history as a regional hub. To the west, the landscape rises toward Laurel Hill and the Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail, which skirts the border of Westmoreland County. The map documents a significant burial history for genealogists, featuring several distinct grounds including Saint Stanislaus Cem, Saint Marys Cem, and Saints Peter and Paul Cem. The drainage patterns of Quemahoning Creek and its many tributaries, such as Beaverdam Cr, underscore the hydrological complexity of the plateau. Smaller settlements like Coal Junction and Gray remain linked by the winding Somerset Pike, reflecting the traditional transportation corridors of the Pennsylvania interior.
