1998 Map of Brush Valley

About this map

Brush Valley and Penn Run anchor this landscape in Indiana County, which is defined by a series of major water management and conservation projects. The map shows the expansive Yellow Creek Lake within Yellow Creek State Park, as well as the southern reaches of the Two Lick Reservoir. Extensive industrial activity is evident through numerous Strip Mines clustered west of Two Lick Creek and near Moose Hill. For genealogists and local historians, the sheet is particularly dense with small family and community burial grounds, including the Harmony Cem, Brush Valley Cem, Evans Cem, and Frye Cem. Scattered small settlements like Luciusboro, Waterman, and Littletown reflect the rural township character, while landmarks like Stake Ch and a Radio Tower near Strongs Hill provide specific points of interest for historical researchers.
