1968 Map of Spartansburg

About this map

Spartansburg serves as the central hub of this northern Pennsylvania landscape, situated where the East Branch Oil Creek meets Clear Lake. The territory is defined by the transition between Concord and Sparta townships, with the Penn Central rail line cutting a diagonal path through the valley. This 1960s survey illustrates a rural economy rooted in agriculture and natural resources, evidenced by numerous small crossroads settlements like Merchant Corners, Blakeslee Corners, and Hatchtown.
