About this map

The headwaters of Pine Creek and the East Fork Sinnemahoning Creek dominate this 1947 survey of Potter County, Pennsylvania. The map highlights a remote landscape characterized by steep valleys and family-named landmarks, reflecting a mid-century period when forestry and conservation efforts were well-established. Significant public land tracks like Summit and Stewardson show the scale of state forest management, while specific points of interest like Cherry Springs Park and Patterson Park mark early recreational development.

Genealogists and local historians will find value in the rural infrastructure, including several small burial grounds such as Ayers Hill Cem, Reed Cem, and Mc Fall Cem. The presence of the United Brethren Ch and the small settlements of Conrad, Borie, and Logue along the narrow creek bottoms provide evidence of the scattered residential clusters that supported the local highland economy during the late 1940s.
