About this map

Troy serves as the focal point of this Pennsylvania landscape, situated at the confluence of several branches of Sugar Creek. The village and its immediate surroundings are dense with genealogical sites, including Glenwood Cem, Saint Johns Cem, and Oak Hill Cem. To the west, the terrain rises toward the broad plateau of Armenia Mtn, where the high-altitude Tamarack Swamp feeds the headwaters of Tioga River and Fall Brook.

Smaller rural settlements like Columbia Cross Roads, Sylvania, and Farmers Valley are linked by a network of historic local roads such as Austinville Rd and Coryland Rd. Notable local landmarks include the Troy Reservoir and the uniquely named Railroad Springs. The distribution of family-named burial grounds, such as Granite-Pierson Cem and Besley Cem, across the hillsides suggests a long-established pattern of upland farming and multi-generational land ownership.
