1959 Map of Lecontes Mills

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River carves a dramatic serpentine path through this 1959 landscape, anchoring a region defined by industrial extraction and small rural hamlets. The extensive presence of Strip Mine labels across the ridges of Goshen and Girard townships reveals a landscape heavily shaped by mid-century coal operations. These industrial sites sit in close proximity to long-standing community centers such as Lecontes Mills and Gillingham, where life revolved around the river and the Penn Central rail lines.
