1945 Map of Le Raysville

About this map

Le Raysville serves as a central hub in this mid-century survey of the rural borderlands between Pennsylvania and New York. The landscape is defined by the high ridges and deep-cut creek valleys of the Endless Mountains region, where communities like Warren Center and Middletown Center are connected by a network of winding roads. This era shows a well-established rural social structure, with local education and faith centered on sites like Flynn Sch and St Patricks Ch. The map details numerous family-named landmarks and crossroads, such as Chaffee Cors and Stone House Corner, which indicate the enduring legacy of early settlement patterns. Along the northern edge, the Pennsylvania New York State Boundary Line bisects small watersheds, including those feeding Choconut Creek and Apalachin Creek. The presence of several localized burial grounds, including East Rush Cem and Darling Cem, provides significant points of interest for those tracing lineage in Susquehanna and Bradford counties.
