1944 Map of Bushkill

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Bushkill Falls and the Bush Kill descend through the northern corner of this landscape, where the Old Shohola Road crosses into Lehman. The mid-1940s terrain is defined by the steep ridges of Big Ridge and Kittatinny Mountain, framing a valley of small settlements and recreational sites like the Glen Ridge Club and Winona Falls. Along the Delaware River, numerous islands such as Poxono Island and Depue Island dot the border between Pennsylvania and New Jersey. The valley floor is networked with rural social centers including Middle Smithfield Sch, Wesley Ch, and Sand Hill Ch. Transport and river crossings are anchored by Dimicks Ferry and the village of Shawnee on Delaware to the south. This era shows the region as a mix of summer colonies, local agriculture, and early conservation, with the Appalachian Trail already established along the southern ridge.
