USGS Topo · Published 1909About this map
Elkins serves as the central hub of this 1909 survey, where the Western Maryland RR and the Coal and Coke Ry converge to facilitate the region's timber and coal industries. The landscape is defined by the winding Tygart River and the high ridges of Rich Mountain and Laurel Ridge. The map documents a period of industrial transition, showing numerous small settlements and labor-intensive infrastructure like the tramroad networks and the Staunton and Parkersburg Pike crossing the heights.
