1964 Map of Fort Necessity

About this map

Fort Necessity State Park and the historic National Road corridor anchor this mid-century portrait of Fayette County. The landscape is defined by the steep transition from the Chestnut Ridge down toward the Youghiogheny River, where Cucumber Falls marks the rugged river canyon. Centered on the settlement of Farmington, the map reveals a network of rural homesteads and mountain crossroads like Chalkhill and Elliottsville.
