1946 Map of Hammersley Fork

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Kettle Creek winds through the heart of northern Clinton County, carving a dramatic valley that defines the local geography. In the mid-20th century, the small settlements of Hammersley Fork and Leidy served as anchors for this rural landscape, connected by river-bottom roads and a high-altitude pipeline corridor crossing the ridges. The map reveals the deep-rooted family history of the area through numerous named landmarks such as Summerson Hollow, Calhoun Cem, and McCoy Cem, which sit alongside the steep slopes of Trout Run Mtn and Fork Hill. A network of tributary runs, including Hammersley Fork and Trout Run, feed into the main creek, while high points like BM 2203 mark the surrounding plateau. Educational and spiritual life is recorded at the Central Sch and the Gospel Camp Ch, illustrating the community structure of these remote Pennsylvania hollows.
