2013 Map of Starrucca

About this map

Starrucca and the surrounding hamlets of the Pennsylvania-New York borderlands are documented here at the start of the 2010s. The landscape is defined by its water and high ground, featuring several notable peaks such as Shrawder Mountain, Slocum Hill, and Maple Hill. These summits overlook a network of glacial lakes and ponds, including Shehawken Lake, Island Lake, and Hiawatha Lake. The settlement pattern follows the drainage of Sherman Cr and Starrucca Cr, with local centers like Scott Center, Maple Grove, and Shehawken linked by a web of rural roads. The area around Bucks Falls and the headwaters of the Merrigan Cr illustrates the character of this interior highland region. This map provides researchers with a record of road names and property locations, from Gardinier Corners to the shores of Mach Pond, during a period of modern rural stability.
