1944 Map of St Thomas

About this map

The ridge-and-valley terrain of Metal, Letterkenny, and Hamilton townships dominates this wartime landscape, defined by the towering heights of Kittatinny Mountain and Blue Mountain. At the base of these peaks, the settlement of St. Thomas serves as a central hub, where travelers transitioned from the agricultural lowlands into the dense timber of Buchanan State Forest. The geography here implies a long history of resource extraction and early industry, evidenced by the presence of Franklin Furnace and Millers Mill. Rural life is anchored by the Edenville Consolidated School and several cemeteries scattered along the drainages of Campbell Run and Wilson Run. Higher elevations like Parnell Knob and gaps such as Yankees Gap provide natural landmarks for navigating this complex geological region during the mid-1940s.
