About this map

The Susquehanna River dominates this mid-Atlantic landscape, carving through the Appalachian ridges at the Susquehanna Water Gaps. Centered on the community of Millersburg, the map illustrates a region defined by its river crossings and valley floor settlements. On the eastern bank, the borough of Millersburg sits at the confluence of the river and Wiconisco Creek, while the western shore features Liverpool and Mount Patrick.

The presence of Montgomery Ferry and the historical Millersburg Ferry crossing highlights a long tradition of river-dependent transport. The terrain is dramatically shaped by Berry Mtn and Mahantango Mtn, which frame the agricultural valleys where smaller hamlets like Killinger, Malta, and Fisherville are located. Genealogists can locate family burial sites at Oak Hill Cem and the Rickard Memorial Cem, while the industrial legacy of the region is suggested by the proximity of the Pa-428 Reservoir.
