About this map

The borderlands between Tioga and Bradford counties come alive in this 1950s record, updated with 1969 revisions. Small rural congregations anchor the upland landscape, including Mansfield Ch, Elk Run Ch, and the high-elevation Armenia Ch near the southern boundary. The topography is defined by significant rises such as Benson Knob and Van Ness Hill, which overlook a network of waterways including Mill Creek and Corey Creek.

Cross-country infrastructure is represented by the Roosevelt Highway and a prominent pipeline cutting through the terrain. For genealogists, the map preserves the exact locations of several small burial grounds like Smith Cem and Grey Valley Cem, alongside established borough boundaries and township divisions like Rutland and Sullivan. These details provide a clear view of Northern Pennsylvania's rural settlement patterns during the mid-20th century.
