About this map

The Allegheny National Forest dominates the northern reaches of this territory, where a dense network of timber and access roads like FR 150 and Coal Mine Rd weave through the creek-cut drainages of the South Branch Kinzua Creek. The settlement pattern centers on Kane, a high-elevation borough surrounded by smaller communities including East Kane, Greendale, and Clarion Summit. The local topography is defined by the high ground of Rocky Ridge and numerous small waterways like Twomile Run and Threemile Run that carve through the wooded landscape.

Genealogists will find significant local history at the cluster of burial grounds south of the main borough, including Forest Lawn Cem, Mount Tabor Cem, and Saint Callistus Cem. Further out, the map records industrial and transit connections at Wetmore and Preston to the west, and the outlier settlement of Sergeant in the southeast. This modern survey illustrates the enduring relationship between these upland Pennsylvania towns and the massive federal forest lands that surround them.
