1960 Map of Century

About this map

The Baltimore and Ohio railroad corridor anchors this industrial and rural landscape at the intersection of Barbour, Upshur, and Harrison counties. Heavy extraction activity is evident throughout the terrain, dominated by numerous strip mines, a conveyor system at Century No 2, and various oil wells dotting the hillsides near Hodgesville. These industrial features are juxtaposed with traditional Appalachian community centers, including Mt Zion Ch and the Sugar Grove Sch.
