1908 Map of Frostburg

USGS Topo · Published 1924

About this map

Frostburg and its surrounding coal-rich ridges dominate this early twentieth-century survey of the Maryland-Pennsylvania borderlands. The landscape is defined by the heavy infrastructure of the era's mining and transport economy, where the National Road and the Cumberland and Pennsylvania R. R. weave through narrow gaps and mountain passes. Industrial sites like Borden Shaft and Eckhart Mines are centers of activity, surrounded by worker settlements such as Midlothian, Ocean, and Carlos.
