1944 Map of Glen Richey

About this map

West Branch Susquehanna River and the winding Clearfield Creek dominate this landscape within Clearfield County, where deep valleys and sharp ridges dictated the placement of early settlements. Small communities like Glen Richey, Oshanter, and Faunce are scattered across the high ground, connected by a network of rural roads and the Conrail lines that follow the river benches. The region's social history is visible through its distributed country schools, including Evergreen Sch and Turkey Hill Sch, which once served these mining and timbering hamlets.
