2023 Map of Spring Creek

About this map

West Spring Creek and the rural crossroads of East Branch and Sanford anchor this landscape along the borders of Warren, Erie, and Crawford counties. The terrain is defined by the high ground of Jackson Hill and Neils Ridge, with a complex network of waterways including Spring Creek, Hosmer Run, and the headwaters of West Branch Caldwell Creek. The settlement pattern is characterized by scattered family farms and quiet community centers, often marked by local cemeteries such as Spring Creek Cem and the Gilson Family Farm Burial Plot. The presence of Nichols Airport near Nichols Farm Ln suggests a legacy of local aviation amidst the hills. These features, along with names like Mickle Hill Rd and Tri Co Line Rd, provide a window into the genealogical and agricultural history of this corner of Pennsylvania.
