About this map

Clarendon and its neighbors sit at the heart of this mid-century survey, where the valley of Tionesta Creek serves as a primary corridor for both the Pennsylvania railroad and regional roadways. The map reveals a landscape defined by natural resource extraction, featuring extensive Gas Wells and the Glade Field Oil Field to the north. These industrial footprints contrast with the surrounding Allegheny National Forest, which covers much of the high ground including Stone Hill.

Settlement patterns follow the water and rail lines, from the edge of Warren and the village of Rogertown in the northwest to Old Clarendon, Weldbank, and Tiona in the south. Local landmarks like Lincoln Sch and Washington Sch provide specific points of interest for genealogists tracing family roots in these small communities. The Allegheny River cuts through the northern section, punctuated by river features such as Shipmans Eddy and Harmon Island.
