1950 Map of Artemas

About this map

Fifteenmile Creek carves a deep valley through the ridges of Allegany County, Maryland, and Bedford County, Pennsylvania, defining the remote character of this borderland. The landscape is dominated by a series of parallel elevations including Polish Mountain, Green Ridge, and Town Hill, which forced early transportation into specific corridors. The northern boundary follows the historic Mason and Dixon Line, while the southern edge is marked by the winding Potomac River near the small settlement of Little Orleans.
