1966 Map of Newfoundland

About this map

Newfoundland serves as the central hub of this 1960s Pocono plateau landscape, situated at the confluence of several mountain streams. The settlement pattern follows the winding course of Wallenpaupack Creek, where smaller communities like Greentown and Hemlock Grove are tucked into the valleys. Local industry and agriculture are visible through several Gravel Pits and the presence of Haags Mill on the southern reaches of the creek. Genealogists will find notable local landmarks including the Pine Grove Cem near South Sterling and churches such as St Mary Magdalen Ch and Zion Ch. To the north, the waters of Lake Wallenpaupack dominate the boundary between Wayne and Pike counties, while the eastern portion of the map is largely occupied by dense State Forest, punctuated only by isolated water bodies like Lake Paupack and Pine Lake.
