1960 Map of Cameron

About this map

The Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor serves as the industrial spine of this region, winding through the valley of Grave Creek and passing through the Welling Tunnel near Tunnel Hill. The settlement of Cameron sits at the heart of this activity, supported by local infrastructure like the Water Works and a High School. The landscape is defined by its complex ridge-and-valley system, with Fork Ridge and Cameron Ridge looming over numerous runs and creeks. To the south, the deep meanders of Fish Creek are marked by a localized Gas Field and a concentration of Oil Wells. Away from the rail line, rural life is centered around small communities such as Loudonville, Woodruff, and Bellton, alongside quiet landmarks like Mount Carmel church and cemetery. The border between West Virginia and Pennsylvania runs along the eastern edge, bisecting properties near Rocklick.
