1900 Map of Gaines

USGS Topo · Published 1944

About this map

The Cowanesque River valley serves as the primary corridor for commerce and settlement in this 1900 survey of the northern tier of Pennsylvania. The New York Central and Hudson River RR follows the river through Harrison Valley and Westfield, highlighting the era's dependence on rail for moving timber and agricultural goods. To the south, the Buffalo and Susquehanna Railroad winds through the narrow valleys of West Pike and Gaines along Pine Creek. The landscape is defined by its deep hollows and family-named landmarks like Stiles Hill and Leech Hill. Smaller farming hamlets such as Loucks Mills and Sunderlinville are connected by a dense network of mountain roads, while the Pennsylvania New York Boundary Line marks the northern edge of the sheet near Whites Corners.
