About this map

Cherry Pond Mountain and Cook Mountain dominate this corner of West Virginia during a period of industrial expansion into the coalfields. The Chesapeake and Ohio railroad follows the winding drainages, connecting coal-rich settlements like Lorado, Pardee, and Wharton to the outside world. This 1928 revision by G.E.Sisson documents a network of rural ridge-top and valley communities identified by local schools and post offices, such as Ball Creek Sch, Jackson (Bim PO), and Toney Fork Sch.
