2023 Map of Litchfield

About this map

Litchfield and its surrounding rural hamlets occupy a high-relief landscape just south of the New York-Pennsylvania border. The terrain is defined by a dense network of creek valleys, including Satterlee Creek and Spaulding Creek, which carve through the uplands between the Susquehanna River to the west and Little Wapasenning Creek to the east. This modern survey illustrates the persistent agricultural and residential character of the region, where small settlements like Bumpville and North Ghent remain anchored by ancestral landmarks. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the numerous burial sites across the township, such as the State Line Cem and several family-specific plots including the Rossi Family Cem and Merrill Family Cem. The map also captures local infrastructure like the Lars/Private Airport and the Susquehanna River Water Trail, reflecting the area's blend of traditional rural life and modern recreation.
