1951 Map of Bellegrove

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Sideling Hill Creek carves a winding path through this 1951 study of the Maryland-Pennsylvania borderlands, where the National Pike serves as a primary artery through Bellegrove. The landscape is defined by the sharp parallel ridges of Long Ridge and Tonoloway Ridge, which channel development into narrow valleys. Along the southern edge, the Potomac River forms a complex boundary, featuring the prominent Turkey Foot Bend. This area shows a critical moment in regional transportation history, with the C & O Canal (Abandoned) and Western Maryland Railway (Abandoned) visible alongside active lines like the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad. Significant local landmarks include the Woodmont Club and numerous country churches such as Piney Plains Ch and Big Ridge Ch, which anchor the rural settlements of Pearre, Exline, and Lineburg.
