1963 Map of Tipton

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

Penn Central rail lines and the winding course of the Little Juniata River anchor this mid-century topographic record of northern Blair County. The settlement of Tipton serves as a focal point, situated near the Peterson Memorial Airfield and the recreation grounds of Bland Park. The landscape transitions sharply from the industrial and transit corridor in the valley to the protected highlands of Rush State Game Lands No 60 and State Game Lands No 158. Utility and infrastructure development is evident through the presence of the Tipton Reservoir, Tyrone Reservoirs, and a prominent pipeline traversing the northern ridges. Local genealogists will find several family-named landmarks and burial sites including Fox Cem, Oak Grove Cem, and Charlottsville Cem, alongside a Covered Bridge near Charlottsville.
