Canonsburg and the surrounding coal-country settlements of Washington County show a landscape deeply shaped by heavy industry and mining. By the early 1960s, the area from McDonald down to Houston was a network of active and former mine sites, marked by numerous mine dumps and a strip mine near McConnells Mills. The Montour RR and Penn Central lines weave through the valleys, following watercourses like Chartiers Creek and Millers Run, which once powered the region's early growth.
