About this map

The Pocono Mountains define the northern landscape of this Monroe County region, transitioning into the valleys and ridges of Chestnut Hill. By the late twentieth century, the area shows a shift toward recreational and residential development, anchored by locations like Sun Valley Lake and the Seneca Hunt Camp. The village of Brodheadsville serves as a local hub near the eastern edge, while the winding course of Pohopoco Creek cuts through the southern reaches, passing through Gilbert and toward Kresgeville.

Genealogists and local historians can locate several institutional landmarks, including St Johns Ch and the Polk Sch. The map also preserves the locations of community burial sites like Effort Cem and Middle Creek Cem. Industrial and civic life is reflected in the presence of the Fairground near Gilbert and various athletic facilities, while the northern woods are protected within State Game Lands No 38.
