1962 Map of Fairmont

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Fairmont serves as the primary hub in this early 1960s landscape, defined by a dense network of tobacco-growing terrain and extensive drainage systems like Ashpole Swamp and Lumber River. The map reveals a deeply established rural social structure through its numerous family cemeteries and country churches, including Antioch Ch and Bethesda Ch. Smaller clusters of activity are evident at Proctorville, Orrum, and Barnesville, while infrastructure like the Proctorville Lookout Tower and a Radio Tower mark the modernizing landscape of the era.
