1937 Map of Mifflintown
USGS Topo · Published 1937About this map
The Juniata River carves a deep path through the ridge-and-valley landscape of central Pennsylvania, anchored by the twin boroughs of Mifflintown and Mifflin. This 1930s survey documents a highly organized rural infrastructure where nearly every valley contains a network of one-room schools such as Whitehall Sch and Jackson Sch, alongside historic congregational centers like Bakers Ch and Brick Ch. The transport corridor is dominated by the Pennsylvania Railroad and the Wm Penn Highway, which follow the river's bend through the Lewistown Narrows. Industrial and agricultural life is evident in the numerous mill sites, including Jericho Mills, Cuba Mills, and Raubs Mills, while the rugged heights of Jacks Mountain and Shade Mountain are punctuated by named gaps and landmarks like the Fire Tower near Mc Cracken Gap.
