1944 Map of St Thomas

About this map

Kittatinny Mountain and Front Mountain dominate the northwestern landscape of this mid-century Franklin County survey, separated by the narrow corridors of Valley Run. The map illustrates the sharp transition between the wooded heights of the Letterkenny State Forest and the agricultural valleys to the southeast. Small settlements like Edenville and St Thomas are connected by a network of local roads and a prominent Pipeline cutting across the terrain. Historical industrial sites such as Franklin Furnace hint at the earlier economic activities of the region, while landmarks like Parnell Knob and Nancys Saddle provide specific points of interest for local historians and genealogists tracing family lands. Waterways including W Br Conococheague Creek and Back Creek define the drainage patterns of this rural Pennsylvania territory.
