1935 Map of Mt. Jewett

About this map

Mt. Jewett and the surrounding high plateaus of the Allegheny National Forest define this mid-1930s landscape at the boundary of McKean and Elk counties. The area is characterized by a dense industrial transport network, where the Baltimore and Ohio RR, Erie RR, and Pennsylvania RR converge to serve the region's timber and resource sectors. Distinctive industrial markers such as Burning Well and Ketner Dam indicate the specialized economies of these highland settlements.
