About this map

Durbin sits at the confluence of the West Fork and East Fork, serving as a central point in this mountain landscape within the Monongahela National Forest. The map documents a cluster of settlements including Frank, Bartow, and Nottingham, connected by the winding routes of Us-250. Regional heritage is marked by the Tannery Truss Bridge and the Mabel Burner Memorial Bridge, alongside several family cemeteries such as Saint Mark Cem and Yeager Cem.

High-altitude landmarks like Gaudineer Knob, featuring the Gaudineer Knob Lookout Tower, provide a distinct sense of the high-country terrain. The drainage patterns of Shavers Fork and Spillman Run define the steep hollows, while Lake Buffalo provides a notable water feature near the southern boundary. This 2014 survey records the established network of mountain ridges, including Back Allegheny Mtn and Sandy Ridge, that have shaped the local timber and river economy for generations.
