1930 Map of Warrensville

About this map

The Pennsylvania RR corridor through the Lycoming Creek valley anchors this 1930 survey, illustrating the critical transportation link between Ralston and the urban fringes of Williamsport. This era represents a transition from heavy resource extraction to a more settled rural landscape, evidenced by the numerous mountain schools like Wallis Run Sch and McLaughlin Sch scattered throughout the highlands. The map captures the industrial legacy of the region in Coal Mine Hollow and the active upland communities at Proctor and Kellyburg. Downstream, the settlement pattern shifts toward the agriculture and infrastructure of the West Branch Susquehanna valley, featuring the County Farm and the emerging suburbs of Faxon and Lynehurst. The intricate network of drainage from Loyalsock Creek and its branches reflects the complex geography that shaped early logging and farming in Lycoming County.
