2010 Map of Overton

About this map

Cahill Mountain and the associated Cahill Fire Tower overlook a landscape defined by the winding course of the Little Loyalsock Creek in this 2010 USGS survey. The region is dotted with historic rural crossroads and small settlements like Overton, Campbellville, and Estella. Numerous family-named landmarks and geographic features, such as Warburton Hill, Molyneux Hill, and Sugar Ridge, suggest a long history of local land use and family homesteading. Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of local burial sites, including Greenwood Cemetery, Warburton Hill Cemetery, and Millview Cemetery. The map also captures the local water management and recreation sites, showing the Roscoe Burgess Dam holding back Burgess Pond, alongside a network of tributary runs including Streby Run and Blackwater Run.
