1948 Map of Tiadaghton

About this map

Pine Creek carves a deep gorge through the center of this 1940s survey, dictating the course of the New York Central railroad and defining the settlement patterns of Tioga County. The map captures a landscape defined by sharp elevation shifts between the plateau and the creek bed, with specific landmarks like Harrison Lookout and Colton Point providing vantage points over the narrow valley. While the gorge itself remains largely undeveloped, the surrounding uplands support small rural communities and local institutions. Genealogy researchers will find significant value in the mapped locations of the Middle Ridge Ch, Sherman Sch, and the West Branch Cem near Olesville. Small clusters of homes and buildings are documented at Ansonia, Stowell, and Tiadaghton, illustrating the dispersed nature of Pennsylvania's ridge-and-valley settlements during the post-war era.
