1960 Map of Big Run

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The hills and hollows of Wetzel County in 1960 are defined by an extensive network of extractive industry and ridge-top settlements. Hundreds of Gas Wells and unlabeled oil wells dot the landscape, connected by a maze of pipelines and unimproved roads. Along the southern edge, the Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor follows South Fork Fishing Creek, serving the communities of Smithfield and Pricetown.
