About this map

New Lebanon sits at the heart of this rural Mercer County landscape, where the terrain is defined by the winding course of North Deer Creek and the broader valley of French Creek. The map documents a deeply rooted agricultural and residential community, centered around the historic village of Milledgeville and the western reaches of Carlton. The southern edge of the sheet is dominated by the sprawling waters of Lake Wilhelm, a significant hydrological feature that reshaped the local drainage patterns of Mill Creek and Dugan Run.

For family historians, this record is particularly dense with burial sites, including the New Lebanon Cemetery, the Fairfield Church Cemetery, and the Pleasantview Mennonite Cemetery near the northern border. These landmarks, along with many others like Bell Cemetery and Deer Creek Cemetery, provide fixed points for tracing generations of local families across the rolling Pennsylvania countryside.
