1970 Map of Weedville

About this map

Bennett Branch Sinnemahoning Creek carves a deep valley through the center of this 1970 survey, anchoring a landscape where narrow floodplains host the primary transportation and settlement corridors. The Penn Central railroad follows the winding river course, connecting the communities of Weedville, Caledonia, and Benezette. This era is defined by the heavy presence of energy and conservation, seen in the numerous Gas Wells dotting the southern hills and the active Strip Mines on the ridges.
