2019 Map of Conyngham

About this map

Conyngham and the neighboring village of Sybertsville sit at the northern edge of this Pennsylvania survey, where the valley terrain meets the slopes of Sugarloaf Mtn. The landscape is defined by its industrial and institutional footprints, including the Penn State Hazleton campus and the proximity of the Hazleton Regional Airport. As the map moves south across the Luzerne and Schuylkill county line, the geography shifts toward more specialized water management and mining-era infrastructure. Distinctive landmarks such as Horse Shoe Swamp and Pismire Ridge punctuate the ridges, while the presence of several reservoirs, including Mount Pleasant Reservoir and Number Eight Reservoir, highlights the regional water network. Settlements like Humboldt, Oneida, and Sheppton provide localized context for researchers tracing family history or the development of these coal-region communities.
