About this map

The hills of Susquehanna County are defined here by a network of upland farms and small creek-side settlements. Tunkhannock Creek winds through the southern reaches, joined by tributaries like Nine Partners Creek and Sterling Brook. This survey captures the landscape as it transitioned through the mid-20th century, documenting the precise locations of rural social centers like the West Lenox Church and several community landmarks including Wright School and Green Grove School.

Elevations such as Morgan Hill, Hickory Ridge, and Finn Hill separate the various drainages, while small bodies of water like Loomis Lake, Acre Pond, and Finn Pond dot the terrain. The presence of the Mount View Airport near Hartley Hill suggests the encroaching modern era upon these traditional townships, yet the map remains anchored in local history with clearly marked burial grounds like Maplewood Cemetery and South Gibson Cemetery.
