2019 Map of Brodheadsville

About this map

The southern slopes of the Pocono Mountains converge here at the headwaters of Pohopoco Cr, where early ridge-and-valley settlements like Effort, Gilbert, and Brodheadsville established themselves along the winding corridors of Monroe County. The landscape is defined by the prominent Weir Mtn to the south and a network of water bodies including Lake Mineola, Seneca Lake, and Hemlock Lake. For family historians, the map is particularly detailed in its marking of local burial sites, from the centrally located Hillside Memorial Cem to the Old Brodheadsville Cem and Buena Vista Cem near the town center. The settlement pattern shows a shift from traditional creek-side villages to modern residential developments like Sun Valley, illustrating the area's continued evolution as a residential and recreational gateway in the Poconos.
