1997 Map of Hawley

About this map

Lake Wallenpaupack dominates the landscape of Wayne and Pike Counties, serving as the central hub for local recreation and community infrastructure during the late twentieth century. Along the northern shores, the settlement of Hawley sits at the confluence of the Lackawaxen River and Middle Brook, while Wilsonville and West Hawley mark the industrial and residential edges of the borough. The map reveals a transition from the structured street grids of these towns to the winding forest roads of State Game Lands No 183 and Delaware State Forest. Genealogists will find notable burial sites and historic congregations including Paupack Cem and the Paupack Ch. To the south, the terrain rises toward Buckhorn Mountain, interspersed with smaller water bodies like Fairview Lake and Lake Wenonah, reflecting the region's character as a dense network of mountain lakes and timberland.
