2010 Map of Coalport

About this map

Glendale Lake dominates the central landscape of this western Pennsylvania study, its irregular shoreline formed by the Glendale Dam across the waters of Clearfield Creek. This region of Beccaria Township is characterized by a network of small, interconnected settlements including Coalport, Lyleville, and Flinton that grew around the local resources and transit routes. Genealogists will find interest in several family-named landmarks such as Shelton Hill Cemetery and the crossroads communities of Nagles Crossroad and Longs Crossroad. The topography is defined by prominent ridges like Punkin Ridge and Snake Ridge, while much of the eastern shore is preserved within Prince Gallitzin State Park. The map captures the area as a mix of recreation and rural living, with numerous small runs like Killbuck Run and Wyerough Run feeding into the larger reservoir system.
