1942 Map of Curwensville

About this map

Lumber City and Curwensville anchor the winding path of the West Branch Pennsylvania Canal in this mid-century portrait of Clearfield County. The landscape is defined by the sharp meanders of the Susquehanna River and its numerous tributaries, including Clearfield Creek and Chest Creek, which carved deep valleys through the plateau. A dense network of local education and faith is evident, with many family-named landmarks like McClure Cem, Ferguson Cem, and Oakland Sch dotting the rural townships of Jordan and Greenwood.
