1963 Map of Blue Knob

Settlement patterns follow the narrow valleys and creek beds, with small communities like Pavia, Queen, and Fredericksburg established along the water. For local historians, the map preserves significant cultural landmarks such as the Lost Cox Children Monument on Martin Ridge, and numerous rural houses of worship including Mt Moriah Ch and Emmanuel Ch. The presence of a Strip Mine in the northwest corner and the Portage Reservoir highlights the region's extraction and utility infrastructure at the start of the 1960s.
