1961 Map of Mc Veytown

Away from the river, the terrain transitions into the dense woodlands of the Tuscarora State Forest. Local history is preserved in rural landmarks like Pine Glen Ch and the Hartzler Cem, while smaller communities such as Peru Mills, Blacklog, and Krause are situated along the winding creek valleys. Notable local road names like Beggars Row and Dougherty Road provide specific geographic markers for genealogists and researchers tracking family land in Mifflin and Juniata counties.
