About this map

Scrubgrass Creek and its many forks define the rural landscape of this western Pennsylvania region, where early twentieth-century industry meets scattered crossroads settlements. The Allegheny River cuts through the northeast corner near Rockland, while the interior is dotted with historical mill sites like Sutton Mill and Sedwicks Mill. These water-powered landmarks, alongside the Johnston Dam, reflect the area's long-standing reliance on its drainage network for local enterprise.

Local history and genealogy interests are centered around the borough of Eau Claire and the Eau Claire Cemetery, along with numerous named corners such as Riddle Crossroads, Smith Corners, and Crawford Corners. The presence of Surface Mine Rd and the Annandale Sandstone Quarry in the southwest indicates the continued importance of mineral extraction to the local economy, connecting smaller communities like Cherry Valley and De Sale to the region's industrial roots.
