  • Anniversary Booklet, John R
    Central Oak Heights 100 Years 1909—2009 Cottage Histories 1 2 FOREWORD The Trustees Minutes 1909-1943 were hand written, and deciphering them was time consuming. How much time was fully dependent on the neatness of the writer's pen- manship. Names were sometimes misspelled; initials were often a matter of guess-work. Not all cottage transactions are recorded there. References were made to "Executive Com- mittee" meetings, but minutes of these meetings have not yet been located, and may con- tain more information. The histories of double cottages get very confusing since the names of owners change at different times for each half, get misspelled sometimes, and numbers get re- versed occasionally. Even the leases can contain misspelled names, but the signatures are more reliable. Many of the cottages around Tabernacle Square appear to have had two fronts, with porches on both north and south sides (or east and west) in their original design. I don't know how they determined which was the "front". Addresses on the maps listed as "Fairview", "Pleasant View", and "Tabernacle Square" were not actually streets, even before paving. They were more like "neighborhoods". Bethel Trail and Hebron Trail are still unpaved paths. The c.1949 map is included as a center-fold. It is of interest because it uses the "old" numbering system and even lists the cottageholders with the numbers and streets.. How many "27"s are there? How many "29"s? Interesting also that the anonymous creator of the map has it oriented "upside down", with South at the top and North at the bottom.

  • Camp Loyalsock (1938-1984)
    CAMP LOYALSOCK (1938-1984) by Milton W. Loyer Camp Loyalsock, one of four summer camping grounds1 brought into the 1968 United Methodist merger by the Central Pennsylvania Conference of the Methodist Church, has an interesting history that involves two conferences, evolving ministries and changing philosophies. Camping at this Sullivan County location was initiated by the Central New York Conference of the Methodist Church, the original 15 acres purchased in 1938 being supplemented by additional parcels secured in 1940 and 1944 to bring the site to its final size of 97 acres. The map on the facing page, prepared for an early engineering study of the facilities, locates the camp in relation to the borough of Forksville, the Sullivan County Fairgrounds and PA 154. Effective June 1, 1952, the Northeast Jurisdictional Conference transferred all Central New York Conference Methodist churches in Sullivan County into the Central Pennsylvania Conference. 2 Specifically, this involved the Forksville charge 3 consisting of Bethel, Estella, Forksville and Hillsgrove. Even though Camp Loyalsock, one of the Central New York Conference's two camping grounds, was situated in Sullivan County within walking distance of the Forksville church, it remained the property of that conference. As might be expected, the Central New York Conference found it increasingly more difficult over the next few years to continue to attract staff and campers to such a distant location. When the conference began to offer summer camps at alternative rented facilities within its own boundaries, loyalty to the once-popular Camp Loyalsock dropped below the reasonable threshold for good Christian stewardship of resources.

  • Lower West Branch Susquehanna River Valley Are Linked to Each Other, the Past and the Future by Their River
    NORTHCENTRAL PENNSYLVANIA CONSERVANCY I. INTRODUCTION The communities in the lower West Branch Susquehanna River valley are linked to each other, the past and the future by their river. The lands along the West Branch were vital hunting grounds and agricultural lands for Native Americans. During Pennsylvania’s great lumbering era, the most significant log drive was conveyed on the West Branch of the Susquehanna River. The Susquehanna’s West Branch Canal Division further shaped the corridor, linking towns and villages and providing vital opportunities for commerce. Finally, railroads in the corridor fused the links between communities and commerce within the corridor. Today this same corridor supports a new generation of forest growth, improved water quality, abundant wildlife, community parks, cultural and historical points of interest, unique habitats, and scenic viewsheds. For these reasons, The Northcentral Pennsylvania Conservancy (NPC), a non-profit regional land conservation organization based in Williamsport, embarked upon developing this River Conservation Plan. The study corridor extends through a four county area from the confluence of the West Branch Susquehanna River and the Susquehanna River’s main stem at Northumberland Borough, Northumberland County, upstream through Northumberland, Union, Lycoming and Clinton Counties to Lick Run near Farrandsville, Clinton County (Figure I-1). The width of the study corridor includes the river, and the land areas located within 1-mile of either bank of the river. A. Corridor Vision The vision of this plan is to enhance the lower West Branch of the Susquehanna River by improving water quality and plant and wildlife habitat and increasing wetlands and riparian buffers.
