About this map

Loyalhanna Creek winds through this Westmoreland County landscape, shaping a valley defined by small crossroads settlements and rugged high ground. Stahlstown serves as a central hub where several state routes converge, including Route 130 and Route 711. To the west, the steep rise of Chestnut Ridge marks the topography, while the eastern reaches are characterized by numerous small watercourses like Powdermill Run and White Oak Run.

Family history and early community life are anchored by several notable sites, such as Snowball Cemetery, Bethel Cemetery, and the Porch Cemetery. The map captures the infrastructure of the early 21st century, including Camp Wesco and the residential clusters at Mansville and Pleasant Grove. Water management is evident in the north near Breskin Pond, where the Breskin Pond Dam Number One and Breskin Dam Number Two regulate the local flow into Fourmile Run.
