1966 Map of Cedarville

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The border of Gilmer and Braxton counties defines the rolling West Virginia landscape of the mid-1960s, a region where life and industry centered on the winding courses of Cedar Creek and the Left Fork Steer Creek. The small settlement of Cedarville stands as a local hub near Rockcamp Run, while the surrounding hills are dotted with numerous Gas Wells and Oil Wells, signaling the area's deep ties to energy extraction. To the northwest, Cedar Creek State Park preserves the headwaters of Sugarcamp Run. The social fabric of this era is clearly visible through its small, family-associated landmarks, including Rhodes Chapel, Otterbein Ch, and the Rutherford Cem. These country churches and cemeteries, often named for early settlers like Waldeck Ch or Gerwig Ch, reveal the generational roots of the families working the hollows and ridges.
