1954 Map of Mifflinville

About this map

The Susquehanna River cuts through this portion of Columbia County, separating the riverfront village of Mifflinville (Creasy Sta) from the industrial and residential pockets of Lime Ridge and Briar Creek. The landscape transitions from the river valley to the steep slopes of Lee Mountain and Orange Knob, where State Game Lands No 55 dominates the northern ridge. The map reveals a dense network of local history, from the Covered Bridge on Fishing Creek to the cluster of specialized burial grounds near Berwick, including the Russian Orthodox Cem and Greek Catholic Cem. This area reflects a mid-century period of transition where early settlement patterns, represented by Dennis Mills and Pealertown, meet modern transportation infrastructure like Interchange 36 and several stretches of Railroad Grade documenting the region's evolving rail dependency.
