HISTORY OF CURWENSVILLE AREA HISTORICAL SOCIETY

The Curwensville-Pike Twp. Historical Society was an idea by a 14-year old local youth.  

Formed in March of 1978 after the late William "Smokey" Osborn reached out to community leaders on the need for this type of organization. 

In the Fall of 1989, The Korb House was donated by E. Furman Korb a family member of the late Mildred Korb Houser.

WHAT ARE THE SANBORN MAPS?

Sanborn maps are detailed maps of U.S. cities and towns in the 19th and 20th centuries. Originally published by The Sanborn Map Company (Sanborn), the maps were created to allow fire insurance companies to assess their total liability in urbanized areas of the United States.
