1940 Map of Orbisonia
USGS Topo · Published 1940About this map
The East Broad Top Rr winds through the narrow valleys of Huntingdon and Franklin Counties, serving as a primary corridor for the industrial and agricultural life of the region. This landscape is defined by the rigid parallel ridges of Jacks MTN, Shade Mountain, and Tuscarora Mountain, which channel development into tight agricultural basins like Path Valley and Amberson Valley. The map reveals a dense network of local institutions, including the Wood-Cutting Sch and Pleasant Bank Sch, reflecting the decentralized rural community structure of the late 1930s.
