1957 Map of New Galilee
USGS Topo · Published 1968About this map
Little Beaver River and its numerous tributaries carve through this corner of Beaver and Lawrence Counties, defining a landscape of active industry and small-town commerce. The valley floor is marked by extensive coal mining operations, with numerous strip mines dotting the hillsides around Enon Valley and Cannelton. The Pennsylvania and Southern railroads serve as the primary transit corridors, connecting the industrial hubs of New Galilee and Darlington. Grounded insights into mid-century local life are visible in landmarks like the Drive-in Theater near Big Beaver and the Brick Kilns that point to the region's manufacturing roots. Local genealogy is well-supported by the presence of the Little Beaver Cem, Wilson Cem, and the White Ch, reflecting the deep-seated community centers of the rural townships.
