1964 Map of Auburn

About this map

The hills of West Virginia at the intersection of Ritchie, Doddridge, and Gilmer Counties are defined by a dense network of winding runs and creek forks. The settlement of Auburn sits at the junction of Bone Cr and its Right Fork, while Coxs Mills and Troy anchor the southern reaches of the map along Little Cove Run and Cove Run. This mid-century survey reveals a landscape heavily dotted with gas and oil wells, connected by a maze of unimproved roads and a significant pipeline corridor crossing the northern terrain.
