A Guide to the PROPERTY OWNERS

In the Township of

Mahoning,

CARBON COUNTY, pa.

In

1875

 

Set off from East Penn Twp. in 1842, the Mahoning Valley was one of the earliest settled portions of Carbon County.  Many of the names on the following list can be found in the tax rolls from the 1700s. 

On the 1875 map, the townships are divided into districts.  District 1 is the area immideatly to the west of the borough of Lehighton, and the map doesn’t make clear where one leaves off and the other starts.  The map shows no District 9, but it would probably be the part of District 2 that is closest to Packerton. 

The village of Packerton is shown on a separate, enlarged map, and is on a different web page.
