1949 Map of Grantsville
USGS Topo · Published 1949About this map
The Casselman River carves a deep valley through this corner of Garrett County, Maryland, and Somerset County, Pennsylvania, providing the central axis for the region's mid-century development. High points like Packhorse Mtn and Negro Mtn overlook a landscape defined by the historic transit corridor of the National Pike, which passes through Grantsville and Keysers Ridge. The map documents a rural society built on extraction and faith, where the No 1 Mine stands near the village of Jennings and localized community centers like Maple Grove Ch, Dunghill Ch, and the Yoder Sch served the surrounding family farms. Timber interests are evidenced by the expansive Savage River State Forest, while family-named landmarks such as Christner Hill and Maynardier Ridge Sch offer significant value for genealogists tracing local lineage in this Appalachian highland.
