About this map

Fairmont serves as the industrial and educational heart of this Marion County landscape, centered at the confluence where the Tygart Valley River and Ohio Fork River meet to form the Monongahela River. The map highlights a mid-century period of institutional growth, prominently featuring the State Teachers College and the State Hospital. Heavy industry and transportation infrastructure define the river corridors, with the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad snaking through Gaston Junction and Watson to support the region's coal and manufacturing interests.
