1948 Map of Olyphant

Beyond the urban centers, the map reveals the social fabric of these immigrant-heavy mining communities through their numerous parochial institutions, including Holy Ghost Cem, St Michaels Ch, and the St Nicholas Orphanage near Elmhurst. As the terrain rises into the Moosic Mountains to the east, the industrial valley gives way to a network of high-elevation water supplies like Marshwood Reservoir and the recreational area surrounding Moosic Lakes.
