About this map

Sugar Grove serves as the primary hub in this northern Warren County landscape, situated just south of the New York Pennsylvania state line. The 1968 survey reveals a terrain defined by narrow valley settlements and upland ridges, where the petroleum industry is evident through numerous oil wells and a Pumping Station near the border. Small community centers like Chandlers Valley are anchored by local landmarks such as the Chandlers Valley Cem and Brown Hill Ch.

The hydrography is particularly detailed, tracing the winding paths of Stillwater Creek and Matthews Run through the townships of Farmington and Brokenstraw. Notable for genealogists are the scattered burial grounds, including Cherry Hill Cem and Wesleyan Cem, which reflect the area's rural settlement patterns before modern expansion. Transportation routes like Stillwater Road and Old State Road connect these agricultural and industrial sites across the varied topography.
