1900 Map of Elkland
USGS Topo · Published 1900About this map
The Cowanesque River valley serves as the primary corridor for commerce and transport in this northern Pennsylvania landscape at the turn of the century. Three major rail lines, including the New York Central and Hudson River R. R. and the Buffalo and Susquehanna R. R., converge near the Pennsylvania-New York border to serve the industrial and agricultural needs of boroughs like Knoxville and Elkland. These settlements are densely concentrated along the water, while the surrounding townships of Chatham and Farmington remain defined by high ridges and family-named landmarks such as Christian Hill and South Hill.
