1960 Map of Mc Coysville

About this map

The ridge-and-valley topography of Juniata County is sharply defined in this 1960s-era study, where the Tuscarora Creek carves a winding path through a landscape of historic mills and small agricultural settlements. Central to the map is the village of McCoysville, supported by a network of rural landmarks such as the McCoysville Cem and nearby Rock Ch. The local economy of the mid-20th century is evidenced by the persistence of place names like Doyles Mills and McCullochs Mills, marking the traditional centers of trade and milling along the creek's many tributaries.
