1922 Map of Stoddartsville

About this map

Stoddartsville sits at the heart of this survey, where the Lehigh River defines the complex boundary between Luzerne and Monroe Counties. The landscape reflects an era of early industrial and transit development, featuring the Ice Company works along Bear Creek and the transit corridor of the Wilkes-Barre and Eastern. Several local education hubs serve the scattered settlements, including the Blakeslee School, Fayette School, and Fishery School. Much of the eastern territory is dominated by the Tobyhanna Military Reservation and a sprawling State Game Preserve. The map documents a transition in transportation as the Northeast Turnpike Extension cuts through the region, intersecting with established local routes like White Haven Road. Smaller hamlets like Irishtown, Bradys Switch, and Albrightsville provide important markers for genealogists tracing family roots in this corner of the Poconos.
