About this map

Knoxville serves as the central hub of this northern Tioga County landscape, situated at the confluence of the Cowanesque River and Troups Creek. This 2010 survey illustrates the rural character of the borderlands between Pennsylvania and New York, where small settlements like Austinburg, Phillips, and Cowanesque are connected by a network of valley roads and family-named landmarks. The topography is defined by narrow creek beds and numerous hollows, including Cook Hollow and Rose Valley, which shape the local transit and settlement patterns.

Local history and genealogy researchers will find several well-documented burial grounds, such as Woodlawn Cemetery, Carpenter Cemetery, and Cloos Cemetery. The map also captures several vanished or small locales such as Academy Corners and Little Marsh, alongside hydrological features like the Knoxville Reservoir and Jemison Creek, which have long influenced the agricultural and residential development of this river valley region.
