About this map

Seven Springs and the surrounding high ridges of the Laurel Highlands anchor this 2023 survey of the tri-county border where Westmoreland, Somerset, and Fayette counties converge. The landscape is defined by its significant relief, with prominent points like Laurel Hill and Painter Rock Hill overlooking the headwaters of Indian Creek and Roaring Run. Settlement patterns follow the valley floors and lower slopes, connecting established communities like Jones Mills and Champion via an intricate network of local routes such as Jones Mill Rd and Pritts Distillery Rd.

Genealogists will find a high density of small burial grounds scattered across the terrain, including the Franklin Lutheran Cem in the north and the Ferguson-Nedrow Cem near the center of the sheet. The map also records the transition from rural residential areas at Maple Grove and Nebo to the concentrated recreational developments near the Roaring Run Resort. Notable landmarks like Horners Mill and Spook Hill provide specific touchpoints for local historians tracking the development of this mountainous corridor.
