1958 Map of Fellowsville

About this map

Fellowsville and Evansville serve as central hubs along the George Washington Highway in this mid-century topographic survey of rural West Virginia. The landscape is defined by the steep slopes of Laurel Mountain and a dense network of watercourses including Sandy Creek and Tibbs Run. The map records a traditional Appalachian settlement pattern where small communities and family-named landmarks are tucked into the hollows, such as Negro Hol and the area around Sigley Sch.
