About this map

Potato Creek flows through the heart of Norwich Township, shaping a landscape defined by deep valleys like Browns Mill Hollow and Spangler Hollow. This high-relief terrain in McKean County is dotted with small, resilient settlements including Crosby, Colegrove, and Betula, linked by the winding corridor of Rte 46. The map provides a detailed view of these rural communities as they appeared in the late 2010s, showing the concentration of homes and local infrastructure along Emporium Rd and W Valley Rd.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of the Norwich Cem and Clermont Cem, alongside the location of the former Hamlin Station. The western portion of the quadrangle marks the headwaters of the E Br Clarion River, while the southern boundary follows the McKean and Elk County line. The intricate network of timber and access roads, such as Penny Grade Rd and Shawmut Gr Rd, hints at the enduring forestry and industrial history of this part of the Pennsylvania wilds.
