1932 Map of Flattop

About this map

The Virginian railroad cuts through the heavy terrain of the West Virginia coalfields, serving a network of small mining communities and timber towns during the late 1920s. Settlements such as Craborchard, Affinity, and Lillybrook are clustered along the narrow creek valleys like Winding Gulf and Tommy Creek, where industrial activity and residential life were dictated by the local topography. The presence of Blue Jay Mine No 7 near Cherry Glade highlights the area's economic reliance on resource extraction during this period.
