About this map

Raystown Lake dominates the central landscape of this Huntington County region, with its winding shoreline carving through a series of parallel ridges. The terrain is defined by the steep elevations of Tussey Mountain to the west and Warrior Ridge further east, creating the distinctive Woodcock Valley. These landforms shaped the early settlement patterns and the placement of mountain passes and valley roads.

Genealogists and local historians will find several well-preserved landmarks of the area's rural development. Small crossroads settlements like Entriken, Russellville, and Newburg are documented alongside numerous family and church burial grounds, including the Plummer Family Cem and the Russellville Reformed Cem. The presence of Paradise Furnace on the eastern edge of the map points to the region's early industrial history, while natural features like Balanced Rock on Allegris Ridge highlight the area's unique geology.
