About this map

Minersville and the surrounding coal-bearing valleys of central Pennsylvania define this late-nineteenth-century landscape, where industrial infrastructure dominates the terrain between Mahanoy Mountain and Blue Mountain. The map reveals a dense network of transport and extraction, centered on the Mine Hill & Schuylkill Haven RR and the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad. These lines connect concentrated mining hubs like Glen Carbon, Forestville, and Branch Dale, showing the specific rail spurs and branches essential to the anthracite economy of the era.
