About this map

The Susquehanna River winds through the northeast corner of this terrain, where the settlement of South Eaton and the crossing at Whites Ferry Rd anchor the riverfront geography. Further inland, the landscape is defined by the high elevations of Miller Mtn and Shaver Mtn, overlooking a network of agricultural valleys and small crossroads communities. Center Moreland sits as a central hub, connected by a web of local routes like Schoolhouse Rd and Orchard Hill Rd.

Water is a dominant feature of the southern half, where Perrins Marsh, Lake Louise, and Lake Catalpa suggest a landscape of glacial depressions and wetlands. Genealogists will find value in the location of the Fitch Cem near Lockville and the Eaton Cem to the south. The map documents the persistent rural character of the region, from the residential clusters at Demunds Corners and Kunkle to the named hollows such as Thurston Hollow.
