About this map

Dagus Mines and the Toby Mine anchor the landscape of Jay Township, reflecting the deep-rooted mining history of Elk County. The settlement pattern follows a network of valleys and ridges, with communities like Byrnedale, Kersey, and Earlyville clustered along the main thoroughfares and historical rail lines. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations such as Rattlesnake Hill and Jack Pine Ridge, while numerous watercourses including Little Toby Creek and Byrnes Run carve through the highland plateaus.

In the southeast, the settlements of Cardiff and Force sit near the Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek, indicating a concentration of industry and transport near the water. Features like Horseshoe Bend Hollow and Bear Wallow suggest a rural character that persists alongside established hamlets. This survey provides a clear view of the area's infrastructure, from named roads like Gillen Crossing Rd to the remnants of an Old RR near the northern boundary.
