1923 Map of Hanging Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1951

About this map

South Branch Mountain and the winding Potomac River South Branch define the topography of this early 20th-century landscape. The settlement of Three Churches sits centrally, surrounded by a dense network of local landmarks including the Dewey School, Shiloh Church, and Millesons Mill. The map documents a rural economy organized around mountain ridges and water gaps, where the Baltimore and Ohio RR tracks follow the river's path while the historic Northwestern Turnpike cuts across the southern portion through Augusta and Shanks.
