1963 Map of Rimersburg

About this map

Rimersburg stands as a focal point in this early 1960s survey of the Clarion and Armstrong county borderlands, where the landscape is defined by the sharp bends of the Allegheny River and a network of deep-cut runs. The area reveals a complex economy of industry and community, from the legacy of iron production at Sarah Furnace to the active extraction at Strip Mines and the Blue Goose Mine. Along the waterways, older sites like Kissingers Mill on Toby Run contrast with recreational spots like the Cherry Run Campground.
