1968 Map of Everett West

About this map

The Narrows forms a natural corridor where the Raystown Branch Juniata River and the Penn Central railroad squeeze between the ridges of Evitts Mountain and Tussey Mountain. This 1960s survey documents the critical transportation artery of southern Pennsylvania, showing the Pennsylvania Turnpike cutting through the valley floor. Rural life is anchored by family-named landmarks and country congregations like Messiah Ch and St James Ch. The map reveals the expansion of Bedford toward the east, including the Memorial Hospital and the nearby settlement of Chalybeate. To the north, the terrain transitions into the high ridges of South Woodbury, where large tracts of State Game Lands No 73 dominate the landscape, preserved for public use amidst the private farmsteads of Dunning Cove.
