1959 Map of Irvona
USGS Topo · Published 1960About this map
The heavy-industrial character of the Clearfield County highlands is evident in the numerous strip mines and transport networks following the winding course of Clearfield Creek. Rail commerce centers on the borough of Irvona, where the Pennsylvania and New York Central lines converge, serving the surrounding mining communities of Coalport, Blain City, and Rosebud. This era of development shows a landscape transitioning between agricultural roots and intensive resource extraction, with family-named landmarks like McPherron, Diehltown, and Berwinsdale scattered among the wooded ridges.
