About this map

The Clarion River winds through the heart of this Jefferson County landscape, carving a deep valley that serves as a boundary between Allegheny National Forest and Clear Creek State Forest. During the late 1960s, this area was defined by a dense network of energy extraction, with numerous Gas Wells dotting the plateaus above the river banks. Settlements like Sigel and Clarington anchor the local road network, while smaller locales such as Belltown and Cathers sit near the water's edge.

Genealogists and local historians can find several established landmarks, including Edeburn Ch and Mt Tabor Cem near the southern edge of the survey. The terrain is marked by distinctive features such as Beartown Rocks and Stahlman Roundtop, while the presence of the Heath Pumping Station along the river highlights the industrial infrastructure required to manage the region's natural resources. Recreation is also evident, with Campgrounds and Picnic Areas established within Clear Creek State Park.
