1948 Map of Renovo East

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

The West Branch Susquehanna River carves a deep valley through the northern Pennsylvania mountains, anchoring a string of rail-dependent settlements in the late 1940s. The town of Renovo and its counterpart South Renovo serve as the primary hubs, where the Pennsylvania RR follows the narrow riverside bench alongside the historic Bucktail Trail. To the east, the landscape transitions into the steep drainages of Noyes and Chapman townships, where small clusters like Gleasonton and North Bend sit at the mouths of rugged hollows. This survey reveals the area's industrial and transport foundations, from the Hyner Landing Field to the numerous family-named landmarks like McCloskey Island and McCloskey Run that speak to the long history of land ownership in this river-and-rail corridor.
