1944 Map of Clearville

About this map

Snake Spring Valley and the parallel ridges of Warrior Ridge and Tussey Mountain dominate this mid-century portrait of Bedford and Fulton Counties. The landscape is defined by its deep north-south valleys, where small farming communities like Chaneysville and Clearville are connected by a network of rural roads and schools such as Warrior Ridge Sch and Maple Grove Sch. The presence of Mills Store and Silver Mills in the southern reaches of Mann township suggests a localized rural economy centered around small-scale milling and commerce.
