2023 Map of Rome

About this map

Wysox Creek and its many tributaries, including Bear Creek and Johnson Creek, carve a complex drainage pattern through the eastern Bradford County highlands. The village of Rome serves as a primary local hub, while smaller communities like Herrickville and Allis Hollow anchor the surrounding rural landscape. Family history is etched across the terrain in names like Taylor Hill Rd and Bonin Rd, alongside numerous burial grounds such as the Ireland Catholic Cem and South Hill Cem. The western edge of the area is defined by the Susquehanna River and the rise of Red Rock Mountain. Southward, the landscape shifts toward smaller water bodies like Totem Lake and Claverack Pond, illustrating the transition from steep creek valleys to high-elevation basins.
