About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River carves through this landscape, separating the urban centers of Williamsport and South Williamsport from the northern slopes of Bald Eagle Mountain. To the east, the river is joined by Loyalsock Creek near Montoursville, where the Williamsport Regional Airport occupies the flat river terrace. The terrain transitions from dense valley settlements to the steep ridges of North White Deer Ridge and the White Deer Valley to the south.

Genealogists will find a significant concentration of burial grounds throughout the region, ranging from the Williamsport Cem and Rocktown Cem in the city to more rural sites like Mount Zion Cem and Washington Cem. Cultural and topographical landmarks such as the Devils Turnip Patch and The Sink illustrate the varied geography of Lycoming County. The map also captures the river's character through features like Racetrack Island and The Gut, alongside the smaller communities of Maple Hill and Montgomery.
