1943 Map of Bushkill

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

The Delaware River defines the southeastern corridor of this 1943 War Department survey, where river crossings like Dimicks Ferry linked Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The landscape is characterized by a dense network of upland water bodies such as Twelvemile Pond and Mud Pond, alongside designated tracts like Hunters Range and Forest Park. Settlement patterns show small clusters at Marshalls Creek, Shoemakers, and Bushkill, with rural life anchored by institutions like the St Thomas Chapel and a series of district schools including Livingston Sch and Brushy Mountain Sch. Engineering of the era is evident at the Beaver Run Dam and the infrastructure serving the Delaware valley. The transition from the alluvial flats of Shawnee Island to the heights of Kittatinny Mountain provides a detailed record of Monroe County’s geography before modern development shifted the region's character.
