1906 Map of Burgettstown
USGS Topo · Published 1944About this map
Burgettstown serves as a central hub in this western Pennsylvania landscape, where early 20th-century coal mining and rail infrastructure intersect with established farming communities. The industrial character of the era is evidenced by the Francis Mine and Shaw Mine, while the winding path of Raccoon Creek and Cross Creek dictate the layout of the hollows and ridge-top roads. Notable transport arteries like the Pittsburgh Cincinnati Chicago and St Louis RR and the Wabash Pittsburgh Terminal Ry cut through the hills, facilitating the movement of coal from local tipples to regional markets.
