About this map

The Clarion River winds through the heart of this late-1960s survey, marking the jagged boundary between Barnett, Heath, and Eldred townships. Much of the northern terrain is dedicated to the Allegheny National Forest, while the southern portion is characterized by a dense network of gas wells and pipelines, indicating a landscape heavily utilized for resource extraction. Smaller public lands including Clear Creek State Park and Kittaning State Forest preserve more of the wooded topography.

Genealogists will find several notable local landmarks such as Mt Tabor Cem and the Edeburn Ch and cemetery. The map documents industrial infrastructure like the Heitiff Pumping Station and several named trails, including the Trap Trail and Clear Creek Trail. Settlements like Clarington and Belltown sit tucked into the river valleys, surrounded by the high elevations of Gregg Hill and Stahlman Roundtop.
