About this map

The Tygart River winds through this 1920s Appalachian landscape, a region defined by scattered mountain communities and a maturing rail infrastructure. The southern hub of Belington serves as a primary junction where the Baltimore and Ohio RR and Western Maryland RR converge. This period shows a high density of rural institutions, with local schools like St Joseph School and Cave Hill School serving isolated hollows and ridges. The presence of Vannoy's Mill and the community at Valley Furnace point to the area's transition from early industrial roots to a more established network of small villages.
