1949 Map of Gorman

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

The North Branch Potomac River defines the border between Maryland and West Virginia in this mid-century survey, anchoring a landscape of steep valleys and industrial activity. The settlement of Gorman and its cross-river neighbor Gormania serve as a focal point for local commerce and transportation, where the Western Maryland railroad follows the river's bend. To the west, the George Washington Highway traverses the terrain near the site of Fort Pendleton, a location of strategic significance.
