About this map

Howard serves as the central hub of this Elk County landscape, where the town's detailed street grid—stretching from W Ohio St down to E Elk St—is positioned near the confluence of several vital watercourses. The Elk River winds across the northern and eastern portions of the map, fed by a network of drainage systems including Rock Cr, Mule Cr, and Paupau Cr. This topography is defined by the gradual convergence of these streams as they move through the undulating plains.

Genealogists and local historians can locate prominent landmarks such as Grace Lawn Cem just south of the main town site, while the southern boundary includes Moline Cem near the N Fork Wildcat Cr. Transportation and commerce are represented by the Elk County Airport and a grid of rural routes like Limestone Rd and Mule Rd that connect the isolated farmsteads and agricultural plots characteristic of the region.
