About this map

Aughwick Creek carves a winding path through this central Pennsylvania landscape, anchoring a network of small settlements and family farmsteads. The twin boroughs of Orbisonia and Rockhill occupy the northeastern corner, where the valley floor widens at the confluence of Blacklog Creek. To the west, Three Springs sits at the junction of Three Springs Creek and the North Spring Branch, serving as a historic transit point through the gaps in the ridges.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites across the terrain, from larger community locations like the Rockhill Independent Order of Odd Fellows Cemetery to smaller, lineage-specific grounds such as the Flasher Family Cemetery, Kyler Family Cemetery, and Baker Family Cemetery. These sites, alongside landmarks like the McKendree Methodist Church Cemetery near Pogue, provide a detailed record of the rural families who established themselves along the valley roads.
