1958 Map of Blacksville
USGS Topo · Published 1992About this map
Blacksville and the surrounding borderlands of Monongalia County sit at the heart of this late-1950s survey, where the winding Dunkard Creek crosses back and forth over the Pennsylvania-West Virginia state line. The landscape is defined by its deep hollows and numerous family-named landmarks, reflecting generations of settlement along runs like Jakes Run and Days Run. These narrow valleys supported tight-knit communities such as Pentress and Daybrook, characterized by a high density of rural cemeteries and small schools like Blacks Sch.
