1951 Map of Cherry Run

USGS Topo · Published 1997

About this map

The Potomac River carves a dramatic path through the tri-state borderlands of West Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania, anchoring a landscape defined by 18th-century boundaries and mid-century industrial transit. This survey highlights the intersection of the historic Mason and Dixon Line with the winding river valley, where the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal remains a visible landmark alongside the active tracks of the Western Maryland and Baltimore and Ohio railroads. Small communities and family landmarks such as Millstone, Cherry Run, and Yeakle Mill illustrate the rural settlement patterns along the river's banks. To the south, the terrain rises into the ridge-and-valley structures of Orchard Ridge and Sleepy Creek, dotted with country institutions like Stone Bridge Ch and the Red Hill Sch.
