About this map

Millerton serves as the focal point of this northern Pennsylvania landscape, situated where the state border meets New York. This mid-century survey reveals a rural society structured around small crossroads settlements and family-named landmarks. Near Millerton, the Township Sch indicates a centralized community hub, while outlying hamlets like West Jackson, Daggett, and Jobs Corners define the local geography. The topography is characterized by high points such as Norway Hill and Buck Mtn, with Seeley Creek carving a significant path through the terrain.

Genealogists will find considerable value in the numerous family cemeteries recorded here, including Wheeler Cem, Seeley Hill Cem, and Alder Run Cem. The map documents the rural infrastructure of Jackson, Wells, and Rutland townships during a period of transition, with 1969 road revisions overlaid on the original 1954 topography. This layering helps trace the development of routes like 549 and 328 through the hills of Tioga and Bradford counties.
