About this map

The Susquehanna River bends sharply through this Columbia County landscape, serving as the central geographic anchor for the borough of Catawissa. The town is positioned at the confluence where Catawissa Creek meets the larger river, a location that historically favored early milling and transport. To the south, the terrain is defined by a dense network of smaller waterways including Roaring Creek and Furnace Run, alongside the recreational area surrounding Lake Glory.

Genealogists and local historians will find several burial sites preserved across the hills, including Mount Zion Cemetery and Roaring Creek Cemetery, as well as Fisher Cemetery near the northern boundary. Transportation infrastructure is represented by the Bloomsburg Airport and Broadt Airport, while roads like Quaker Meeting House Rd and Poor House Rd provide evidence of earlier community landmarks and civic sites that shaped this region's development into the 21st century.
