1969 Map of Leroy

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Towanda Creek and its many tributaries, including the North Branch Towanda Creek, dictate the settlement patterns of this Bradford County landscape. During this era, small agricultural and crossroads communities like Granville Center, Bailey Corners, and Sayees Corners populate the northern plateaus. To the south, the terrain shifts significantly as it enters the State Game Lands No 12, where the high ground is dotted with upland water bodies such as Holcomb Pond, Sunfish Pond, and Mud Pond. The southern half of the map reveals a more industrial and isolated character, marked by the sites of Barclay, Carbon, and Laquin along Schrader Creek. These locations reflect the area’s history of resource extraction, further evidenced by a Sandpit near West Leroy and a Gravel Pit further east. The transition from the valley farms of Leroy to the high, wooded game lands illustrates the dual nature of the region's land use.
