1954 Map of Harold

About this map

Levisa Fork winds through this coal-country landscape, serving as a primary corridor for the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad. In the mid-1950s, the region was defined by small riverside and creek-side settlements like Betsy Layne, Banner, and Ivel. This survey reflects a period of intensive local development, evidenced by the numerous mountain hollows populated with institutions such as Sammy Clark Sch and Amba Chapel. The proximity of the Printer (Salisbury Sta) and Beaver Junction highlight the area's historical reliance on rail infrastructure for both passenger travel and industrial transport.
