About this map

Tussey Mountain and Warrior Ridge dominate this corner of Bedford County, where the topography of the Ridge and Valley Province strictly dictates human movement. The Lincoln Highway cuts across the northern reaches, while the rest of the landscape is defined by long, narrow valleys connected by occasional breaks like Mc Kees Gap. These valleys support a dense network of early 20th-century rural life, featuring countless family-named landmarks and local institutions. Small communities such as Clearville and Chaneysville serve as hubs for the surrounding farmsteads, while the industrial legacy of the region is visible at Jackson Mills and Silver Mills. For researchers, the map provides precise locations for scattered hilltop schools like Barkman Sch and Oak Grove Sch, alongside country churches including St Marks Ch and Stevens Chapel.
