1971 Map of Ogletown

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Babcock State Forest dominates the northern reaches of this landscape, where the high terrain of Pot Ridge is marked by multiple Strip Mine operations. This 1971 field-checked survey reveals a rugged transition between the forested highlands of the Ogle and Shade townships and the valley settlements to the southeast. The small community of Ogletown sits at a critical junction near Pine Lake, while the village of Ryot anchors the lower elevations along Dunning Creek. A complex network of drainage, including Clear Shade Creek and West Branch Georges Creek, cuts through the steep topography of Calvary Hollow. Local social and family history is anchored by rural landmarks like Calvary Ch, Dunning Creek Ch, and scattered Cem sites, providing a detailed view of the rural infrastructure in both Somerset and Bedford Counties.
