1932 Map of Karthaus

USGS Topo · Published 1943

About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River carves a serpentine path through these Central Pennsylvania hills, defining the landscape and the early routes of commerce. Along its banks and deeply incised tributaries, the New York Central Railroad snakes through the gorge, serving remote stops like Frenchville Sta and the Coleman Siding. This 1929 survey highlights a high density of rural institutions that once anchored these upland plateaus, including a remarkable concentration of one-room schools such as Mignot Sch and German Settlement Sch. In the higher elevations of the north, isolated outposts like the Three Runs Fire Tower and the Apollo Rangers Club stand watch over the forested ridges. The settlement pattern reveals the distinct cultural pockets of the era, from the enclave at Frenchville to the isolated cluster at Rolling Stone.
