New Ringgold serves as a focal point for this landscape where the Little Schuylkill River cuts through the ridges of Blue Mountain. The topography is defined by the steep parallel runs of the Chain and Summer Mountain, creating long, narrow valleys like Red Valley that have dictated the placement of historic settlements and transport routes. This map traces the dense concentration of early German heritage and community life through numerous small burial grounds, including the Zion United Methodist Cem and the West Penn German Eldership of the Church of God Cem.
