About this map

Springville serves as a central hub in this corner of Pennsylvania, where the landscape is defined by a dense network of glacial lakes and named ridges. Local history is etched into the terrain at Gobblers Knob and Negro Hollow, while family legacies are preserved in numerous rural burial grounds like Quick Cem, Bunnell Cem, and Tyler Hill Cem. The area’s hydrology is particularly complex, with Lake Walter, Lake Crystella, and Broadhead Pond feeding the various branches of Meshoppen Creek and White Cr.

Settlement patterns follow the winding creek valleys and high ridges, connecting smaller communities such as Auburn Four Corners, Lymanville, and Lynn. The border between Susquehanna Co and Wyoming Co cuts across the southern portion of the map, marking a transition in the drainage basins of the W Br Meshoppen Cr. This survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure and named hills, such as Meachem Hill and Sheldon Hill, that characterize the region.
