2019 Map of Thompson

About this map

Thompson and the surrounding townships of Susquehanna County are defined by a high-elevation landscape of glacial ponds and narrow valleys. This late-2010s survey details the headwaters of major regional waterways, including the Tunkhannock Cr and the W Br Lackawanna River, which carve through the plateau near East Mtn. Small settlements like Ararat, Jackson, and Gelatt serve as local nodes within a network of historic roads, such as the Old Newburg Tpke. The map provides specific locations for genealogical research, including Fairmount Cem, Lamb Cem, and Foster Cem. Aviation is represented by the Mountain Top Airport, while the area's natural hydrology is documented through features like Fiddle Lake, Hathaway Lake, and the extensive Tinglepaugh Swamp.
