2016 Map of Tunkhannock

About this map

Tunkhannock sits at the confluence where Tunkhannock Creek meets the Susquehanna River, serving as a central hub for this portion of Wyoming County. The landscape is defined by the river’s broad curves, containing islands such as First Island and Second Island, while steep elevations like Osterhout Mtn and Miller Mtn rise sharply from the valley floor. To the north, Lake Carey provides a distinct focal point for smaller settlements including Aldovin and Cooper Corners. The map documents a blend of river-bottom industry and highland agriculture, connected by routes like State Rte 1001. Genealogists may find interest in the several documented burial sites, such as Sunnyside Cem and Dixon Cem, which are situated near established villages. The presence of Skyhaven Airport near the river bend indicates the modern infrastructure supporting this rural corridor.
