1964 Map of South Connellsville
USGS Topo · Published 1972About this map
The Youghiogheny River carves a deep path through the north-central portion of this landscape, separating the industrial activity of South Connellsville from the dense woodlands of State Game Lands No 51. To the west, the settlement of Dunbar and its surrounding clusters like Factory Hill, Furnace Hill, and Pechin reflect a region defined by its resource extraction and manufacturing history. The presence of an Iron Furnace and numerous labels for strip mines and quarries alongside the B & O and Baltimore and Ohio Maryland and Western rail lines underscores the heavy industrial character of the era. High atop Chestnut Ridge, the map shifts toward rural landmarks such as Greenbrier Ch and the Tharp Cem, providing essential points of interest for genealogists tracing family histories in the outlying flats and hollows of Dunbar and Stewart townships.
