The Monongahela River serves as the central artery for this industrial landscape at the start of the 20th century, where the convergence of the West Fork River and the Tygart Valley River anchors the city of Fairmont. The map documents a region defined by its vital transportation corridors, including the Baltimore and Ohio RR and historic turnpikes like the Fairmont and Beverly Turnpike. Industrial activity is evident at the Tysonnet Mines, while the social fabric of the surrounding hills is marked by rural outposts such as Mt Zion Church and Nebo Church.
