1958 Map of Big Chimney
USGS Topo · Published 1978About this map
The Elk River winds through the heart of this landscape, anchoring a series of small settlements and transportation corridors just north of the state capital. By the late 1950s, the region reflected a mix of traditional hill-country life and burgeoning suburban infrastructure, seen in the proximity of established communities like Big Chimney and Milliken to the expanding Kanawha Airport and Coonskin Park. The complex topography is carved by numerous tributaries such as Sandy Creek and Coopers Creek, which provided natural pathways for the Baltimore and Ohio railroad and various secondary roads.
