About Vicksburg CDP (Union County)
Vicksburg is a census-designated place in Buffalo Township, Union County, Pennsylvania, along Pennsylvania Route 45 between Mifflinburg and Lewisburg. It belongs to the Susquehanna Valley farm-and-road network, where township roads connect small villages to the larger boroughs nearby. Buffalo Township was settled in the 1770s and incorporated in 1772; its map still includes Vicksburg alongside Buffalo Crossroads, Cowan, and Mazeppa. That township setting places Vicksburg inside a rural municipal network, with Route 45 as its direct link toward the nearby boroughs.
Vicksburg's community memory survives in the Union County Historical Society, which has preserved accounts of growing up in Vicksburg from 1938 to 1954 and the story of Burrey's Store. Those records give the village a daily-life history built around local roads, a store, and the people who used them over time. The local scoop is that Vicksburg's map is modest, yet its identity is easy to trace: Route 45, Buffalo Township, the old store stories, and the Lewisburg-Mifflinburg orbit.
