1968 Map of Titusville South

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

The birthplace of the modern petroleum industry is captured in this late-1960s survey of Venango and Crawford Counties. Drake Well State Park sits at the northern end of the deeply incised valley of Oil Creek, a landscape fundamentally shaped by the 19th-century oil boom. The map illustrates the specialized settlement patterns that emerged along the valley floor and surrounding uplands, including Petroleum Center, Pioneer, and Miller Farm. These locations, once bustling centers of the world's first oil rush, are shown alongside active Oil Fields and the infrastructure of the Penn Central railroad.
