2014 Map of Cherry Run

About this map

The Potomac River carves a winding path through the borderlands of Pennsylvania, Maryland, and West Virginia, anchoring a landscape shaped by transportation history. The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal follows the river's northern bank, marked by the engineering legacy of the Licking Creek Aqueduct. Settlement patterns on this 2014 survey reflect both historic agricultural roots and modern developments, with established locations like Ernstville and Pecktonville appearing alongside newer residential areas such as Mountain Vistas and Golden Fleece Estates. Local history is preserved in numerous burial grounds, including the Stone Bridge Cem and Chestnut Grove Cem, while the northern reaches are dominated by the terrain of Tuscarora Mountain and Keefer Mtn. The persistence of early industry is noted at Yeakle Mill on the banks of Little Cove Cr, providing a clear record of the region's long-standing water-powered economy.
