1948 Map of Emporium

USGS Topo · Published 1958

About this map

Emporium sits at the junction of Sinnemahoning Creek and Salt Run in this mid-century portrait of Cameron County. The valley floors are busy with the infrastructure of the Pennsylvania railroad and Pennsylvania 155, which trace the narrow corridors carved by the creek. Settlement is concentrated in the southern basin at Newton and Prospect Park, while the northern reaches transitions into the deeply dissected plateaus of the Portage and Lumber townships. Local landmarks such as Sizerville Park and the Upper Reservoir highlight the region's managed water resources. For genealogists, the map preserves the locations of Newton Cem and St Marks Cem, alongside numerous family-named hollows like McDowell Trail, Bauer Hollow, and Lucore Hollow that define the local topography.
