2019 Map of Cochranton

About this map

Cochranton serves as the focal point of this rural Crawford County landscape, where the waters of French Creek and Little Sugar Creek converge. The settlement pattern is defined by several historic crossroads such as Shaws Corners and Kantz Corners, while the northern hills are marked by the small community of Frenchtown. This area is particularly rich for genealogical research, documenting numerous small burial grounds and religious sites including Saint Hippolyte Church Cem and the Saint Peter and Paul Roman Catholic Cem. The terrain rises from the creek valleys toward prominent elevations like Round Knob and Pine Knoll, with a network of local routes like Franklin Pike and Meadville Rd connecting the scattered farmsteads. Smaller watercourses like Conneaut Outlet and Mud Run further carve the topography, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped land use in this part of Pennsylvania for generations.
