About this map

Tunk Hannock Creek carves a path through this corner of Susquehanna and Lackawanna Counties, anchoring a landscape defined by small valley settlements and high ridgelines. By the mid-1940s, the rural character of the area was firmly established around intersections like Lenoxville, South Gibson, and Glenwood. The presence of several family-named landmarks and local institutions, such as the Wright Sch and West Lenox Ch, reflects a communal structure built on localized farming and small-scale transit.

Uplands like Oak Knob and Hartley Hill dominate the central terrain, while the northern reaches show early aviation infrastructure at Mount View Airport. Water features including Loomis Lake and Acre Pond highlight the glacial geology of the region. The map reveals the early connectivity of the area via Nine Partners Road, showing how these disparate mountain hamlets were linked before modern highway expansions altered the flow of local travel.
