Coal-country heritage and deep ethnic roots define the landscape of Hazleton and its surrounding boroughs. The map reveals an incredible density of religious sites and cemeteries, illustrating the immigrant communities that settled near the anthracite mines, such as the Saint Michaels Ukrainian Catholic Church Cem, Saints Peter and Paul Polish National Cem, and the Holy Trinity Russian Orthodox Cem. This religious geography is anchored by the tragic history of the region, specifically marked at the Stockton Mine Disaster Cem.
