1969 Map of Templeton

About this map

The Allegheny River and the winding course of Mahoning Creek define this section of Armstrong and Clarion Counties during the late 1960s. The landscape is heavily marked by the region's industrial activity, with numerous Strip Mine sites scattered across the hillsides of Madison and Mahoning townships. These excavations sit alongside established rural communities like Templeton and Widnoon, where small schools such as Madison Sch once served the local population. Transportation follows the water, with the Conrail and Pittsburg and Shawmut railroads tracing the riverbanks and creek valleys.
