About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River snakes through deep plateau cuts in this 1929 survey, serving as the central artery for a landscape defined by timber, early trails, and isolated settlements. Along the river, the New York Central RR follows the northern bank, passing through Karthaus and past the Coleman Siding. High above the river bends, the Three Runs Fire Tower and Arnold Mtn overlook a network of backcountry paths including the Mahoning Trail and Gentz Trail. The map captures a high density of rural infrastructure from this era, specifically visible in the numerous neighborhood schools like Buck Run Sch, German Settlement Sch, and Sylvan Grove Sch. Settlements such as Frenchville and Keewaydin anchor the upland plateaus, where Fairview Ch and Palestine Ch served the local farming and coal-mining communities.
