1955 Map of Lumberville

About this map

The Delaware River defines the heart of this landscape, separating the riverfront hamlets of Lumberville and Point Pleasant on the Pennsylvania side from Byram and Raven Rock in New Jersey. During the mid-20th century, the Penn Central rail line traced the eastern bank through Kingwood Station, while the western side was marked by the winding courses of Tohickon Creek and Tinicum Creek. A rural network of schoolhouses and houses of worship served these river communities, including the Brick Church and Groveland School in the west, and the Kingwood Church to the east. Notable landmarks like Doans Cave and the Quarry near Point Pleasant speak to the local geological and cultural history, while the numerous islands—including Treasure Island, Marshall Island, and Walls Island—underscore the river's central role in the regional geography.
