2009 Map of Valley Falls

About this map

The Valley Falls townsite sits at a significant bend in the Delaware River, where the waterway transitions from a meandering river valley into the northern reaches of Perry Lake. This 2009 survey reveals the community's established layout, centered around the Valley Falls Post Office and a grid of streets including Elm St and Sycamore St. The area's local history is anchored by several burial grounds, including Saint Marys Cemetery to the east and the adjacent Farrar Cemetery and Rose Hill Cemetery to the south. The surrounding landscape is defined by an extensive drainage network, with Brush Creek, Rock Creek, and Walnut Creek feeding into the main river channel. The map provides a detailed view of rural Jefferson County infrastructure, tracing routes like Blue Mound Rd and Headwater Rd as they navigate the creek-carved terrain above the reservoir.
