1971 Map of Alum Bank

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Bobs Creek and Dunning Creek carve through the parallel ridges of Bedford County, defining a landscape of narrow agricultural valleys and steep timbered slopes. Along the valley floors, the settlements of Alum Bank, Osterburg, and St Clairsville are connected by a network of local roads and the Conrail line following the water gaps. This 1970s record shows the rural infrastructure of the era, including several instances of a Covered Bridge crossing the creeks and the established Fish Hatchery at Reynoldsdale. Genealogists will find notable local landmarks such as Horne Ch, St Peters Ch, and the Friends Cem near Spring Meadow, while the presence of several Sandpit locations in Lincoln township points to the local extractive industry of the time.
