About this map

Frankstown Branch Juniata River carves a winding path through this Blair County landscape, anchoring a series of valley settlements during the late twentieth century. The map illustrates a region defined by narrow agricultural corridors between prominent ridges like Brush Mountain and Lock Mountain. Industrial and transit history is evident in the alignment of the Penn Central Frankstown Branch railroad and several quarries near Hollidaysburg. Genealogists can identify numerous local landmarks, from Royer Cem and Rhodes Cem to small rural schools such as the Township Sch. The presence of Canoe Creek State Park and the rugged State Game Lands No 147 highlights the preservation of Pennsylvania's forested terrain amidst the historic villages of Frankstown, Geeseytown, and Clappertown.
