1944 Map of Glen Richey

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Clearfield Creek winds in dramatic loops through the center of this landscape, its deep valley separating the townships of Lawrence, Bradford, and Woodward. The industrial and transportation history of the region is evident in the transition from the Old RR Grade to active Conrail lines, which follow the steep contours of the creek and the West Branch Susquehanna River. Small rural settlements like Glen Richey, Faunce, and Boardman are scattered across the higher ground, supported by a network of local institutions including Pleasant Ridge School and Mt Zion Church. A notable fire tower stands near Oshanter, overlooking the heavily wooded ridges and the numerous runs, such as Morgan Run and Sanbourn Run, that feed into the primary waterways. The map also captures specialized land uses, from the Clearfield and Curwensville Country Club in the north to the Thompson Cem and Stoneville Cem, which offer significant value for genealogical research.
