The Allegheny River valley near the Pennsylvania border is captured here during a period of massive environmental and cultural transformation. The 1962 fieldwork documents the impending inundation of the region, with blue hatching indicating the vast areas slated to be submerged by the Allegheny Reservoir. This project fundamentally altered the Allegany Indian Reservation, impacting riverside settlements like Onoville and Oldtown. The map records these communities and the Oldtown Cem just before the rising waters changed the landscape forever.
