1968 Map of Franklin Forks

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The Snake Creek valley anchors this 1960s study of Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, showing a landscape defined by small rural hamlets and an extensive extractive industry. While the Susquehanna River and Conrail rail line cut through the northeastern corner near Hallstead, the interior is a network of township roads connecting historic settlements like Lawsville Center and Franklin Forks. The high frequency of labeled quarries and gravel pits throughout the hillsides, such as those near Stonecrop Hill and Franklin Hill, points to the region's historical reliance on stone and aggregate production.
