1905 Map of Centerpoint

USGS Topo · Published 1905

About this map

Baltimore and Ohio RR tracks define the southern landscape of this 1905 survey, connecting the bustling village of Salem with nearby Industrial, Bristol, and Sherwood. This corner of West Virginia is a dense network of high ridges and narrow hollows, where life centered around post offices like Alvy P.O. Stringtown and Braden Sta. Lima P.O. while industrial sites like Eagle Mills utilized the region's abundant water power. The map reveals a transition into the West Virginia hills during an era of significant expansion, shown through the convergence of the Tyler and Doddridge County lines. Small rural hubs such as Centerpoint, Big Battle, and Morgansville appear at the intersections of local runs and forks, reflecting the localized river-and-rail economy that sustained these communities before modern infrastructure reshaped the terrain.
