About this map

Philipsburg serves as the focal point of this 2019 survey, situated at the confluence of Cold Stream and Moshannon Creek. The map documents a dense network of coal-country settlements along the border of Centre and Clearfield counties, including Kylertown, Winburne, and Morrisdale. This region is particularly rich in genealogical data, preserving the locations of numerous denominational burial grounds such as Kylertown Presbyterian Cem, Saint Peter and Paul Catholic Church Cem, and the Unknown Catholic Cem near Munson.

Transport corridors like Interstate 80 and the Allport Cutoff contrast with older routes like the Old Bellafonte Pike. The landscape's industrial character is further reflected in specialized junctions and infrastructure, such as Loch Lomond Junction and aviation sites like Folmar Airport and Albert Airport. Small communities like Hawk Run and Pardee are meticulously mapped alongside natural features like Emigh Lake and Barlow Hollow.
