The Staunton and Parkersburg Turnpike winds through this 1924 landscape, serving as a vital corridor between Huttonsville and the high mountain crossings. This era shows a region defined by its rugged topography and timber-driven rail expansion, with the Western Maryland RR following the Shavers Fork and the Chesapeake and Ohio RR meeting at the junction in Durbin. Remote communities and family-named landmarks are scattered across the high ridges of Allegheny Mountain and Middle Mountain, including the isolated Burner Settlement.
