1968 Map of Harman

About this map

Harman stands at the confluence of Dry Fork and Horsecamp Run, serving as a central point in this rugged portion of Monongahela National Forest. The landscape is dominated by parallel ridges like Shavers Mountain, Middle Mountain, and Rich Mountain, which channel numerous waterways through steep valleys. Small settlements and mountain hamlets such as Sully, Wymer, and Jenningston are linked by winding roads like U.S. 33 and W. Va. 32. Local genealogy is preserved in several rural burial grounds, including Kerns Cem and Spruce Run Cem. The map reveals a remote geography of deep hollows and named ridges like Panther Camp Ridge and Brushy Ridge, where land use is defined by isolated Gas Wells, a Quarry, and the winding paths of Glady Fork and Laurel Fork.
