About this map

Lycoming Creek carves a deep valley through the center of this 1923 survey, serving as a primary corridor for both the Pennsylvania Railroad and State Highway No. 20. Along its banks, the settlements of Trout Run, Powys, and Cogan Valley (Cogan Station PO) act as vital nodes in a landscape defined by industrial and agricultural history. To the east, names like Nail Factory Mtn hint at the area's manufacturing past, while numerous rural schools such as the Falls Factory School and Khimps School are scattered across the surrounding ridges.

Dense networks of family-named landmarks and schools characterize the smaller drainages, including Larrys Creek and Loyalsock Creek. From the village of Salladasburg in the southwest to the remote reaches of Turntable Hollow in the northeast, the map documents a transition from the developing outskirts of Williamsport near Wildwood Cemetery to the high, segmented plateaus of the North-Central Pennsylvania highlands.
