1943 Map of Monroeton

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

The Susquehanna River carves a deep path through Bradford and Sullivan Counties, defining the geography and settlement patterns of this region during the 1940s. Along its banks, the Lehigh Valley RR connects established river towns like Wyalusing and Monroeton, while Homets Ferry serves as a reminder of the river-based transit of earlier decades. Further inland, the terrain rises sharply toward Kellogg Mountain and Robwood Mountain, where the land is dotted with a network of rural schools including Norway Ridge School and Wellstown School. The map captures a moment when agrarian life remained central to the economy, evidenced by the Pleasant Valley Fruit Farm and numerous small crossings like Coyles Corners. Significant local landmarks like the French Asylum Church and the overlook at Wyalusing Rocks highlight the cultural and natural heritage of the Upper Susquehanna Valley.
