1943 Map of Monroeton

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

The Susquehanna River carves a dramatic oxbow through this region, where the historic settlement of Asylum and the French Asylum Church stand as reminders of early pioneer attempts to tame the valley. In the 1940s, the landscape was a mosaic of high ridges and narrow creek valleys, with the Lehigh Valley railroad following the path of Towanda Creek toward Monroeton. This survey captures a rural network of small-scale agriculture and community hubs, evidenced by family-named landmarks like Coyles Corners and Limehill.
