About this map

The Susquehanna River carves a dramatic oxbow through the heart of this Bradford County landscape, dictating the placement of historic riverbank settlements and crossing points. This contemporary survey shows how the river-bottom lands around Terrytown and Homets Ferry remain central to the region's geography, while upland ridges like Norway Ridge and Oak Hill rise sharply from the valley floor. The map is particularly dense with genealogical markers, documenting family-named burial grounds such as the Laporte Family Cem and the Frenchtown Old Cem.

Evidence of the area's agricultural and transit history is preserved in the network of rural routes like French Asylum Rd and the prominent Wyalusing Rocks overlook. From the northern bend at Standing Stone down to the confluence with Wyalusing Creek, the terrain reflects a long-established rural pattern of small hamlets like Rummerfield and Durell connected by winding valley roads and creek-side dwellings.
