1946 Map of Glen Richey

USGS Topo · Published 1946

About this map

Clearfield Creek carves a deeply winding path through the center of this 1946 landscape, meeting the West Branch Susquehanna River near the northern edge of the sheet. The settlement of Glen Richey and neighboring Oshanter occupy the uplands west of the creek, served by a network of rural schools including Evergreen Sch and Turkey Hill Sch. The terrain is marked by traditional ridge-and-valley industry and infrastructure, with the Pennsylvania and B & O railroads following the river and creek valleys to navigate the relief. Local history is anchored by several rural landmarks, from the Mt Zion Ch to a series of community burial grounds like Stoneville Cem and Thompson Cem. The mapping shows the transition from the riverside facilities of the Clearfield and Curwensville Country Club to the timbered heights around the Fire Tower near Faunce.
